11:13 pm - What does it mean to be unfaithful?
Hat tip to E. Suh on this:

Online couple cheated with each other

By staff writers

September 18, 2007 12:00am

A married couple who didn't realise they were chatting each other up on the internet are divorcing.

Sana Klaric and husband Adnan, who used the names "Sweetie" and "Prince of Joy" in an online chatroom, spent hours telling each other about their marriage troubles, Metro.co.uk reported.

The truth emerged when the two turned up for a date. Now the pair, from Zenica in central Bosnia, are divorcing after accusing each other of being unfaithful.

"I was suddenly in love. It was amazing. We seemed to be stuck in the same kind of miserable marriage. How right that turned out to be," Sana, 27, said.

Adnan, 32, said: "I still find it hard to believe that Sweetie, who wrote such wonderful things, is actually the same woman I married and who has not said a nice word to me for years".

04:09 pm - Subscribe to my Blog
The end has come. Farewell LJ, hello blog.

All the previous entries will soon be Friends-only (by June 15th). If you want access, feel free to leave a comment here. If you want to be kept up to date on when I update my blog, you have several options based on RSS:

1) Web-based Feed Reader
Go to the blog and on the bottom of the right-hand-side column there should be 6 picture links which will allow you to add my blog to your My Yahoo! page, to iGoogle or Google Reader, to NetVibes, to BlogLines, to My AOL, or to Newsgator. If you need the specific feed page, click on the orange RSS button which will jump you straight to the link for the feed.

2) Safari/Firefox Live Bookmarks
Firefox (and Mac's Safari) is capable, not only of directing your RSS links to iGoogle/Google Reader (by default), but can also create a Live Bookmark, which will update your bookmark folder with my most recent posts. More details here.

3) Internet Explorer 7
First of all, if you are still using Internet Explorer 6, go upgrade. Its worth it. The browser is faster. Has tabs. Better phishing and popup blocking, links better with Windows Defender. There's no reason you should be using a bad browser (IE 6) when a better ones are available for free, and if you're not on the Open Source/Firefox bandwagon, go get IE7.

With that said, there are multiple ways to subscribe to my blog in IE7. You can go to my blog page and click on the orange RSS button in my sidebar or in the IE7 toolbar. If you do the former, you get to IE7's very cool RSS interface which will let you subscribe to the feed either in the toolbar (with the Star/Plus button) or on the main screen.

4) Desktop Feed Reader
I personally prefer Web-based Feed Readers if only because I like being able to open up my list of feeds at any place that has internet access and have all the read statuses and favorites synched no matter where and when I open them up. On the other hand, desktop feed readers like NetNewsWire and FeedDemon and RSSOwl do have a lot of useful and interesting features. In any event, I know very little about these programs, but they should be relatively easy to use -- either that or they're just written very very poorly (which I'll admit is possible). The feed link is here.
