I’ve just posted a new page here listing the details of my faithful ol’ Jeep that I’m selling. Have a look. If you know anybody interested in the Carolinas area, please direct them here. It’s a good deal with a lot of extras. She’s ready to hit the trails immediately!

StumbleRead is very close to what I wrote about earlier when I outlined how I’d redesign the user interface for FriendFeed.
You put your nickname and FF key and voila…on the left you’ve got a Google Reader style listing of FF items that you can go through using keyboard shortcuts that work just like Google Reader. When I brought the idea up earlier, it brought some heat from some bloggers that were concerned about losing advertising revenues by siphoning off too much of the user experience from their website. StumbleRead has solved this problem by loading up the original website on the right-hand frame of the browser window.
It looks like it’s also attempting to keep track of which items have been read already. I don’t know how persistent that “read” mark is, but I doubt it keeps track of that between sessions.
Still missing some key elements. I don’t like that it loads the underlying site without asking…some of the sites load too slow. I also still see the same problem of conversation threads that I don’t care about continually bubbling to the top of the heap because some random person has hit the “like it” link.
We’re getting there.
