Google Reader replacement for me…

Image
With Google getting rid of yet another of their programs (really getting fed up with their updates, I for one liked both Reader and iGoogle!!), I had to made a decision, which blog reader to use in future … and decided to go for BLOGLOVIN. So… if you want to follow me in future and you have a blog reader list, you may want to click on the link below (unless you use Feedly or other).

And the photos from my new mobile are now on Dropbox, too. I’m currently looking into getting a photo library software (hopefully free) which lets me add comments to each folder with info as to where/what/who is on the photos.
