I know you want to subscribe to this blog... but how?

OK, I figured that a lot of you (i.e. my mom) would want to get notified by email whenever I posted something new to this site. And I figured that that would be pretty standard functionality.

Well, it looks like I figured wrong! I can't find anything about email notifications for blogger posts. If anyone out there knows how to do it, PLEASE let me know, nate _at_ lunchclub _dot_ com.

So I guess RSS is the only way to subscribe to my infinite wisdom. For those of you geek-tech-com-soft types, my RSS feed is:

If you're new to RSS, it's a way to get all your news and other publications of interest aggregated, using an (aptly named) "aggregator," such as Feed Reader (which is free, and the one I use).

(If you aren't already in the RSS game, then it would be a silly idea to sign up just for my feed. I'm pretty sure that I won't post to this blog often enough to make it worth the time. But if you're already an RSS person then it can't hurt.)

My other recommended RSS feeds:

  1. The most popular sites that people have bookmarked:
    http://del.icio.us/rss/popular

  2. The most "dugg" tech news and tidbits:
    http://digg.com/rss/index.xml

  3. All that Web 2.0 craziness:
    http://feeds.feedburner.com/Techcrunch

  4. The sports guy!

Enjoy!
