On a whim tonight I decided to investigate Bloglines.

Background:
I read blogs in two locations, work and home. In a perfect world, I’d like the ability to synchronize my read lists between each site. It’s a heterogeneo
us environment with linux on one side and windows on the other.

By using bloglines i’ve been able to import my list of 70 or 80 odd blogs that I actively read. I normally use SharpReader for reading on my windows box b
ut decided to try out FeedDemon because of its integration with Bloglines.

I’m hoping that the Bloglines web interface will be a suitable replacement for liferea (my rss reader in Debian). When I get home, i’ll be able to fire u
p FeedDemon and only see posts that haven’t been read at all. It will take some getting used to but looks like it could be a pretty good solution.

On another note, I’ve been experimenting with Synergy on my
dual head system at home. Although I’ve got a hardware kvm to switch one of the two displays between a linux and windows machine, Synergy allows me to do
something similar in software over tcp/ip. It’s a slick solution where I can just move my mouse cursor off the screen and onto the second machines deskto
p. The best part is that you can cut&paste text between the two machines.

Pretty cool if you ask me.
