RSS2.com new design is live!

RSS2.com new design is live! - Individual feed page, originally uploaded by gserafini.

I’m pleased to announce the release of a major facelift for RSS2.com - the site that makes reading a feed easier than ever. The new design places emphasis on easy reading of content - using Georgia as the default reading font, em sizing so that fonts can be increased or decreased properly in all browsers, the ability to vote an entry up or down and thereby influence the RSS feed score for a given RSS feed.

The feed featured in this screenshot is by Waxy.org.

Here is the RSS2.com link for Waxy’s link RSS feed: http://rss2.com/feeds/Waxy.org-Links

You can create a user account in seconds and begin adding and reading your favorite feeds. Coming up next is OPML support for both importing and exporting lists of RSS feeds.

Online Pharmacy

This site provides information about online pharmacies but doesn’t sell any drugs.

This site is about online pharmacies and shares information about the drugs that people can buy online. We are interested in learning about unsafe online pharmacy stories as well as people’s successes with ordering medications over the Internet.

The graph that we hope to be on someday…

This is an Alexa traffic graph showing quantity of traffic, comparing a number of fitness related sites:

Alexa graph

Not surprisingly, Collabofit isn’t even on the chart yet. Well, with only 26 members and an invite-only system so far, we’re not too worried about it. I’ll check back in a couple of months and see how we’re doing then… :)

Submitted a tile for Collabofit to PixTower.com

There are still some free blocks left. I actually like what this clever Australian is doing, lots of opportunity for creativity here.

Just ordered new business cards from OverNightPrints.com

Just ordered some neato business cards for Katanaa from OvernightPrints.com. I think their pricing is better than Vistaprint and they can also do rounded corners. The overall buying experience was nicer as well, making it just really easy.

Our new Katanaa business cards

Update: the cards arrived and they’re really really great. Nice and heavy with the free aqueous coating on both sides. Slick and glossy. We all like them quite a bit.

My Last Day at Vibe Solutions Group, moving on with my own business!

Thursday, May 18, 2006 was my last day as an employee of Vibe Solutions Group. I had a great time working there, and I’m very excited and proud of what we accomplished during my time there during the 6 years I worked with that group of people. Our recent launch of Vibe Journal and the work we did with video mail was pretty wonderful.

Even more exciting, however, is the opportunity to move forward full-time with my own business, continuing to design web pages and custom web applications. Hopefully this will mean that I can write more, spend more time with my family, travel more, and in general focus 100% on building the best business I can. I’m encouraged by the great team that we’ve been developing, including Ben, Ammo and a number of other cool folks who help out as needed. Onward and upward!
