Notice the time stamp of this post. Sometime after 12:00 PM but before the actual session scheduled for today. I've noticed there has been some confusion as to when information gets posted and most of this is my fault. I have failed you all in not setting a standard time by which all information needed for the upcoming session will be posted. From this day forward the blog updates it's final post by 12:00 PM on the day of the scheduled session. Furthermore to alert you all to when I update the blog I am willing to use my twitter account to send notifications of blog activity. You can follow me on
twitter, my handle is
Mr_Dorian_Grey. I've set my twitter account up to receive an RSS feed from the blog so whenever I post an article here twitter will get the update in, at most, 30 minutes. The nice part about this is you can get a twitter account and have it send updates to your phone via text messages for no charge. This is a good way to stay informed without having to download software or install anything on anything else.
If you don't want to be posting phone information on twitter your other option would be just to get a feed reader. These are programs that can subscribe to RSS feeds and automatically download them to your computer for you to read at your leisure. The main advantages here are they are faster to recieve updates and you don't have to give out any personal information. The disadvantage to this method is it isn't as portable (Unless you get an rss reader for your phone) and it downloads all the posts as well you have to install it on a computer. I've done a little research and found some feed readers. The top pick of
blogspace.com was
SharpReader (updated more fequently) with
FeedReader (prettier website) as a close second. It should be noted here that those are Feed Readers for windows. If you want a feed reader for another operating system just follow the link above to blogspace. The blog feed url is http://elbatron.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default.
