feedreaderWhat software do you use to read RSS Feed? I personally use FeedReader. FeedReader is a freeware which you can use to subscribe and read RSS feeds. It is easy to use and manage. You can download it for free here: Download FeedReader

How to use it?
FeedReader is easy to use. All you have to do is, go to the website that you want to subscribe and find it’s RSS link. Usually the link marked with one of these icons:

rssicon 01 rssicon 02 rssicon 03

After you found the link, copy the link (not the image link) and paste it in Add Feed (File > New > Feed) box. Then click Ok. FeedReader will start searching for the site’s feed. If the feed is found, FeedReader will display RSS feed from the site that you subscribed.

Do you have an example?
Ok, for an example, copy my site’s RSS feed link below and paste it in the Add Feed box. Then click OK. After awhile, you will get my site’s feed in your FeedReader. It’s simple. Copy and paste. :d

After the release new patches for Firefox, 12 flaws discovered have been patched. Five of the patches issued in Firefox 1.5.0.4 were labeled “critical”. Mozilla has released four security updates to the 1.5 edition since it was made available last November.

Why you need to update your Firefox?
You need to update your Firefox because multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in Firefox. HTTP response smuggling attacks, could allow malicious code writer to steal login cookies or other sensitive data if the user has an account at the spoofed website.

Beside than that, hackers can run buffer overflaw to unpatch Firefox that would allow them plant malicious code on victim’s computer. Other flaws could let attacker run malicious JavaScript without the user’s permission.

I have updated my Firefox to the latest version. How about you? ;)

On December 2005, I have wrote about Opera 8 - The Fastest Browser on Earth. After half year has past, Opera still hold the title. This site has performed web browser speed tests on 3 platforms (Linux, Mac and Windows) and almost all the tests won by Opera.

But from my opinion, Opera is good in speed but it doesn’t support some scripts and site layout on the net. For example, some sites that I open with Opera, the site’s layout change and the site does not look like a site anymore. But this does not happen in Firefox and IE perhaps.

ff avThis is my first post with BlogJet. Actually I have installed this application about 3 days ago but I have problem to connect it to my site because of some security issues with my hosting. BlogJet is not free. You need to get it’s license if you want to keep it. For now, I just want to test it performance.

BlogJet is a software where you can publish your entry without you visit your site. How do I say that? Erm…you don’t have to login to your site to write your new entry. You just write it in BlogJet then click publish. Then you are done. Easy isn’t it?

Ah…I also have downloaded BlogDesk and install it. It is a freeware. Of course many peoples want free things. If you want to try BlogDesk you can visit their site and download it. Tell me which one do you prefer between these two softwares. I think thats all for now. I will write my next post in BlogDesk and will tell you which one is the best.

Note: The image above there is just for testing.

Edit: Looks like BlogJet can’t upload the image. And this post I edit with BlogDesk. ;)
And I want to thanks to my friend, Thilak for telling me about this desktop blogging client. :p

I wonder how many my site readers use shoutbox on their site.

So, this week poll is about do you use shoutbox on your site?
If you do, is your site is a personal site (daily life) or something like commercial (info news, tech news, etc)?

Feel free to take the vote… ;)

Each time I start Firefox, Google is the first page that will open up. To visit other sites, I push Ctrl+T many times to open new tabs. But do you know how to start Firefox with multiple tabs so you don’t have to hold Ctrl+T or righ-click > New Tab to open new tabs when you start your Firefox?

Here I will show you how to do it. But don’t try this at IE because it will not work. I guarantee it. :p
