life is but a stream, sweetheart

This is that yummy Koigu that I mentioned in my last post. I couldn’t help casting on. They’re going to make a wonderful pair of Yule Socks, methinks. I’m just turning the heel now (toe-up), so we’ll see whether I got the measurements right soonish.
New feature on ye olde blog: a link to a new page labelled “lifestream”. For those who aren’t aware of what a lifestream is, it’s the feed of information generated when you use microblog (Web 2.0) applications like Facebook or Twitter or Flickr or whatever. It may seem somewhat egotistical, but I include it as a stream-of-consciousness page for folks who would like to see what I’m prattling on about when I’m not blogging. Since it takes comparatively less time to twitter or upload a photo to flickr, this includes the generated content in a relatively easy to follow format that keeps it all in one place for thems who are interested. Those who aren’t can just overlook it and keep on going. No harm, no foul.
I checked out a few Firefox addons today, as I realized that there was a potential to get rid of some of my various windows and/or extraneous applications. Well…to make a long story short, out of a bunch of applications, I pared it down to a feed reader called “Feedly” that presents the sites I want to read in an attractive, easy-to-follow format. Much better than Google Reader or bloglines (ah, how I disliked bloglines).
So yeah. Slowly, but surely, the windows are coming under control.
