ReadAir

Ugh. It’s late, and I’m only just now getting around to catching up on my blog reading? What happened to the times when I’d check in at least once a day? Oh yeah. Right. I’m reading stuff going back to May 6th, sitting in my reader. (At that point I just mark everything read.)

These days, I do most of my blog reading on the train, which means I do it offline. Google Reader is still my reader of choice, and thanks to Google Gears I can catch up on things in offline mode. But that’s still kind of limiting. I’d been looking, lately for a desktop reader that synched with Google Reader. Enter ReadAir.

It’s powered by Adobe Air, and it’s not a bad little app. It’s still in development, so it doesn’t have all the functions of Google Reader, but it’s worth keeping an eye on if you’re looking for the Google Reader experience in a desktop app.

- A Writer’s Morning
  July 15, 2009 | 3:11 pm
  Interesting post on a writer’s morning. My writer’s morning, if it starts at all, depends upon whether I get a seat on the Metro and whether the laptop cooperates. If it takes more than two stops to wake up, my writer’s morning is pretty much over at 9:00 a.m. It’s really more like a writer’s half-hour.

  The economic downturn is definitely touching everybody. It appears that the Queenis running out of money for palace expenses.

  So, Obama still sneaks the occasional cigarette? Eh. I’m not that concerned. Given the stresses of his job, if he only grabs an occaional cigarette (having been a habitual smoker in the past), he’s doing pretty good. It’s an extremely hard habit to break.
- 12 Years For $50 Billion
  June 24, 2009 | 10:12 am
  OK. Call me crazy, but when you basically steal $50 billion and ruin a lot of lives in the process, you don’t get to ask for 12 years in jail. (Which I think workds out to 1 year for every $4,166,666,666.67.) Well, you can ask, but…
