I used to love NetNewsWire – it’s still the best experience for satiating your daily dose of information hunger. Great features.

But, I’ve jumped to Google Reader and haven’t looked back. I’m on too many devices, and syncing them all is a pain or impossible. I also like the social-network features built-in, as well as the easy feed generation (though imperfect) from “Shared Items”. It works great on the iPhone, which sealed the deal (fueled by a lack of a decent feed reader there).

Also, on China: the Bible is now (so I heard on Luis Palau’s last trip there) the second-most published book in China, after Mao’s Little Red Book. Crazy!

So I checked out Christvertising . . . I’m hoping that the whole thing is facetious. It seems a little over the top. Maybe even simply silly.
Thanks for most of the links then.
