Ok so I tried to scare ya…guess it didn’t work eh? Le sigh. Happy Friday the 13th everyone…whoppie friggen doo. I’d tell you that all the wack jobs are running around my neighborhood tonight but it’s like that every night so no change here *chuckle*

In my net travels today I found some useful goodies for ya to play with this weekend! Here they are in no particular order:

FEED Validator – This is a validator for syndicated feeds. It works with RSS 0.90, 0.91, 0.92, 0.93, 0.94, 1.0, 1.1, and 2.0. It also validates Atom feeds.

To use it, simply enter the address of your feed and click Validate. If the validator finds any problems in your feed, it will give you messages for each type of problem and highlight where the problem first occurs in your feed. If you’re unsure what a message means, click the “help” link next to the message for a fuller explanation.

Web2.0 Logo Creator – A parody of Web 2.0 Logos, make your own spiffy W20 logo. Here’s mine:
Generated Image

PDF Online – Convert to files to PDF for Free. Including the following formats MS Word, MS Publisher, MS Word, MS Excel, HTML, MS PowerPoint, Text and more.

Oh oh oh! One more thing I’ve been meaning to ask y’all:

How do you read An Indian Summer?
Physical Visit or RSS Feed?

I’m running out of town tomorrow so I hope y’all have a great weekend! :)

    I use the RSS feed to check for new posts, then come read.

  2. Lindsey on October 13, 2006 at 11:06 pm

    Yup, RSS feed, then come here to read em!

    I come by and visit. If you want to have your rss feed, I suggest using feedburner. Your visitors can save your feed in any format they want. And you can also generate an email newsletter sign up.

    Bug, quick question for you, for your contests, how do you give away blog explosion credits. I’ve got so many too. And it just accumulates month to month. Do you just tell BE that you want to give credits away?

  5. Dawn (webmiztris) on October 14, 2006 at 6:25 am

    i always visit through Bloglines. i love it!

    sharon, there’s a link in Blog Explosion named ‘Transfer Credits’ that you can use to send credits to other BE users.

    Just pop by from Rav’N's blog. Cool spot! I got 28 on that M&M Dark Movie Game – but with help from the Internet. I know, I cheated… I’ll be back!

    Actually you did scare me, and I wet myself. Thank you very much.

    You know how skittish I am.

    I’m old school–I haul my self over here. :)

  10. LaDonna on October 15, 2006 at 11:48 am

    I usually just come over here, although I’m starting to do more stuff with rss feeds. I’ve been too lazy to drag all of my blog reads into my reader, though. One day.

  11. CP on October 15, 2006 at 12:34 pm

    Physical visits.

    The web is impersonal enough, thank you very much.

    CP.

  12. Amy on October 16, 2006 at 9:44 am

    I always visit physically. I never have gotten the hang of any of the readers. LOL

    Playing catchup…

  13. diane on October 17, 2006 at 9:42 am

    I visit physically, too. I have a “blogs” folder in my favorites, and I try to make regular visits to each one in there. I’m not always good about it though–need to get into a better routine!

  14. Erika on October 20, 2006 at 8:45 pm

    Hey Bug :) Long time no chat, lol….I enjoy my actual visits. No RSS feed stuff here :)
    Hope you are well. Huggers
