Ways to read this blog (or any blog)

Updates (1) This blog is now also accessible as http://feeds.feedburner.com/argonneifd
and (2) Thanks to Feedburner, I added another widget for subscribing more easily, in the reader of your choice. (Feedburner was apparently acquired by Google, which now offers a number of its services for free, along with Blogger, also owned by Google.)

Original post:

You can, of course, just go directly to http://argonneifd.blogspot.com/ when you want to see if anything new has been posted lately. But, there are several ways that you can check quickly and/or be automatically notified when there's a new post:

(1) I've added a new widget to the blog page (top left) that allows you to subscribe by entering your e-mail address and clicking the "Subscribe" button, so that you receive any new posts in your e-mail inbox, if you don't already have too much bacn to deal with already and like to get e-mail. The widget is powered by SendMeRSS . There are other services that also allow you to provide your e-mail address and the address of any site (such as a blog) that has an RSS feed, and will monitor the feed and e-mail you when something new shows up. Another one is RssFwd .

(2) If you use the Mozilla Firefox web browser, you can set a Live Bookmark - click on either the
Subscribe to: Posts (Atom) at the bottom of the blog page, or the orange & white icon in the Firefox address bar.
(3) If you use Internet Explorer version 7 or later, you can set a Feed, similar to the Firefox live bookmark.


(4) You can add the RSS feed to your my.yahoo, Google Reader, or other feed reader, if you have one, or want to set one up (they're free). As above with Firefox Live bookmarks, click on the orange icon or the
Subscribe to: Posts (Atom) at the bottom of the blog page, but pick your feed reader from the drop-down menu, instead of picking Live Bookmark.
