imjustcreative Blog
Have had a number of people ask me for a reading list of what websites I regularly read and check so I have started building a Reading List page on imjustcreative.
The winners of the 10 Feedly iPhone App’s giveaway ‘Feedly iPhone App Launch Giveaway’ are as follows’:
With the run up to Christmas I will be doing a few mini giveaways, the first one being a number of copies of the Feedly iPhone app by DevHD.
Found this site a few weeks back, but only just recently started playing with it. Spectives collects RSS feeds and presents the data in a visual thumbnail way. So rather than bucket loads of text, it shows the main image of each RSS feed.
Toluu a service that is fast growing on me. And the important thing is that it will really shine the more people come on board, as there will be a richer store of feeds to measure and match from, thus you will benefit from discovering further feeds based on your own likes.
