(I've actually been meaning to turn off the beep, but keep forgetting.) Usually, I just look over the sites and titles and click Mark All Read, but Whimfield is one of the feeds I read every story from. I love what you guys are doing. :)</p> <p>Oh... and Linux is not a bad choice. I prefer Mac OS X, but I used to use Linux rather than Windows. Lately, though, I've just settled on just using a bottom-of-the-line Mac mini desktop. It fits perfectly on a small bookshelf-desk combo, and is small and quiet enough that I can keep it up out of the reach of my little boy. :)</p> I actually use the Google Reader website, but there’s an application available for Mac OS X that changes an icon in my menu bar and beeps when I have new things to read.

Hmm. I know you’re techy so I am just rambling on about technical things. Not sure why. :)
