Oh, hello again! Thanks for coming back.
The internet hasn’t collapsed yet, so I think this blog has a shot at sticking around. The next question would be, “how can I stay up to date on all of this information”? Well, we here at the Don’t Tree have decided to make things easier for youby providing a whole host of ways to get all of those bits and bytes into your information holes.
First, a lecture:
Are you using Google Reader? If your answer is “No,” my response would be “Why not!?” Seriously, this will change the way you use the internet. After a minimal amount of setup, you will have a single site that pulls updates from all of the sites you visit every day. Forget about making your rounds to every individual site you prefer to read, this will bring every update to your fingertips and… eye-tips. If you need further assistance, here’s a good tutorial.
Now that you’re rolling with Google Reader, what should you populate it with? Well, I can’t recommend my sites enough.
The best one-stop feed for all things Don’t Tree Riddle is my FriendFeed. FriendFeed is a great service that aggregates all of your Web 2.0 sites into one big firehose that anyone can drink out of. Currently, my FriendFeed draws updates from this blog, my Twitter account, and my Google Reader shared items. More services will be added later, such as Flickr and YouTube. To subscribe, just copy/paste this url into your feed reader of choice: http://friendfeed.com/kross?format=atom.
To get up-to-date info on the radio show itself, your best bet is to join the Facebook Group. Being a member of the group ensures that you will get invites to all of the shows with detailed synopses of what each episode will be about. You will also be able to discuss the show there, and have a great opportunity to contact me or any of the hosts directly with your thoughts or comments. Sorry MySpace users, but you will be left out in the cold until that particular service stops sucking (read: stop using MySpace, already. You’re part of the problem).
Lastly, if you’re a fan of more personal communication, you can always contact us directly. Our email address is dont.tree.riddle@gmail.com, and our AIM name is DontTreeRiddle. Easy enough, right? The cool part about these services is that you can provide real-time feedback and contribution to the show, and even have your comments read aloud on the air. Isn’t that neat?
So, there you go, you have every tool you need to keep up to date on the show. Until next time, comment away.
