2008-07-26 20:49:00 I was surprised the other day to learn that my brother, who is a veterinarian by profession and oversees his own web site, had no clue about what RSS was. So, how do you explain to someone why they should ’subscribe to your feed’ when they have no idea what you are talking about? This is what I told him and fortunately, he got it the first time. Oh, the RSS… well, lets see: Its a way to read new content of any website on a single page, so you don’t have to remember each website’s address! There are many companies who let you do that… Google does it through their application called Google Reader. Its fairly simple to have a Google account and then click on Reader option and start adding sites that you want to see the newest content from. Also see here: A Quick Tour of Google Reader I personally prefer Bloglines - another company that also lets you read your favorite sites on a single page - after signing up with them of course… you...

Privacy vs. technology, freedom vs. convenience: it?s only going to get wor
2008-03-21 19:00:00 Item: Citizens are concerned about online privacy and security. According to a new report from USC’s Center for the Digital Future, “Sixty-one percent of adult Americans said they were very or extremely concerned about the privacy of personal information when buying online, an increase from 47 percent in 2006. Before last year, that figure had largely been dropping since 2001.” These fears are well-founded. The study, to be released Thursday, comes as privacy and security groups report that an increasing number of personal records are being compromised because of data breaches at online retailers, banks, government agencies and corporations. The Identity Theft Resource Center, for instance, listed more than 125 million records reported compromised in the United States last year. That’s a sixfold increase from the nearly 20 million records reported in 2006. About “two-thirds of adult Internet users shop online,” so their privacy fears aren’t ...

Junk food: Convenience and low price equals bad deal
2008-02-28 11:55:00 Recently I talked about slotting fees and how they are the reason why junk food is so popular at the supermarket. Slotting fees are a fee paid by food companies to supermarkets, so they would place the food company's products on shelves in higher traffic aisles, which consequently results in more sales. Because junk food companies have more profit, they can spend more on slotting fees (and advertising). Now, slotting fees probably are a very important reason for junk food's popularity, but it's definitely not the most important reason. The main reason for the popularity of junk food can probably be found in the denomination of the term itself.

Appetite suppressing 'convenience' food to hit markets in two yea
2008-02-03 12:07:00 Convenience' food will take a whole new meaning if British scientists are successful in developing what they call fat-fighting ready-meals and snacks. The appetite suppressant containing foods could appear in supermarkets within two years. The approach, which the researchers are following, includes - incorporation of hunger curbing plant chemicals called lipids into a wide range of convenience foods such as cakes and biscuits. Lipids exist in cereals including oats, which explains why a bowl of porridge keeps you feeling fuller for longer. The research, led by Dr Peter Wilde, of the Institute of Food Research in Norwich, is developing a way of isolating those lipids that are easily digested by the body and concentrating them into a product that can be inserted into food. "We are looking at how to change the satiety properties," the Telegraph quoted him, as saying. "We are trying to reduce appetite by using the body's own natural response rather than using an appetit...
