The Chris Gonyea Project

Yesterday I received an e-mail from FeedLounge basically saying that if I am one of 100 people to reply first to the e-mail I would get an invitation to try out the alpha. So I replied, even though according to my clock I was 10 minutes behind and probably was going to be screwed.

Well, I got my invitation in the e-mail and signed up. I have only been using it for about a hour with a limited # of feeds, but I am extremely impressed. Bloglines on steriods is definitely the right way to put it. AJAX in all of its glory. A little slow loading sometimes, but I think that is due to it being alpha…it will definitely get better.

On another note, I realized just how maddening it is to not have full feeds while using FeedLounge, especially in 3-column glory. Turning my blog’s feeds onto full text now. Scoble can add another blog onto his list.

I will blog more about FeedLounge as I go along with it.

Good story by this guy who was on trial for running a red light at an intersection. Except, he was able to prove his innocence with a laptop, Firefox, Google Maps, and one bad (but good enough) WiFi connection.

Guess I am lucky.

NH drivers could start using E-ZPass on July 11th and you could buy the tags for $5 until the 16th (yesterday), where they were going to go up to $22+ shipping and handling. Well the deadline was extended to August 3rd after it was learned the price increase couldn’t be done in time to allow the system be implimented smoothly.

So thanks to the extension, I just ordered my E-ZPass tonight. I had to spend $5 for the tag, then put $30 into my account. Once that balance goes below $10, they will automatically refill my account based on usage patterns.

The days of looking for tokens, loose change, or $1 are now over when going into tolls.
