Ping.fm is a grand service.  With one post, you can simultaneously update Twitter, Facebook, Blogs, and more.  It is like magic.  Further, users of Hootsuite, oh how I love Hootsuite so, can now use a beta version to update via Ping.fm from the service.

Now Ping.fm has gone one step further.  According to the Seesmic blog, you can add RSS feed monitoring and post it to a network. According to the blog:


“All you simply need to do is choose the RSS selection under Services / Tools (right there in the Dashboard), and then enter in your RSS feed to the blog of your choice.”

Managed by Superfeedr, the unfortunate thing at present is the fact that the new feature is limited to a single RSS feed.  If you use multiple feeds, combine them into one and the RSS feature for Ping will be up, running and glorious.

Add us to your feed.  We don't post too much, so we won't bombard you, but what we do post will make you quicker, stronger, faster and possibly vomit free.

FarmVille is so disgustingly annoying that I pity those that play it and instantly hide from my Facebook news feed, those who post information on their latest crop harvest, which member of their virtual farm family has contracted syphilis, or how many of their barn cats are rabid and have to be put down by Pa.

Now Mashable, a social media and more site that I follow, announces they have created a FarmVille channel and in the process lessened the credibility of their site by oh, I don't know, 99.7%.  Really, FarmVille?  Goodbye Mashable.  It was nice reading the stories you frequently broke after other sites, blogs and Twitter feeds, including my own.  Enjoy virtual farming using avatars with oversized, Rocky Dennis-like, heads.

P.S. Now taking applications from other sites wishing that I subscribe to their Twitter feed, fan them on Facebook, or add them to my RSS feed.

While browsing the latest on Twitter I came across one of the more interesting concepts related to the site, IdiotTweets, which also boasts a Facebook page as well, where the IdiotTweet of the day is posted.

From the simple, straight forward message of the site, its goal is to retweet tweets that people supply to the site via their Twitter feed, idiot_tweets, which the site describes as, "Tweets by Idiots, for Idiots, or containing Idiotic things."

So far it would appear that they have received some golden Tweets, which goes to show that fools are born every day, 140 characters at a time, who aren't afraid to put their idiocy on display for everyone to see.  Thanks to IdiotTweets we can now see some of the best on a site that looks eerily similar to the real thing.

The iPad, and other various e-readers, the Kindle, Nook, ect., have been touted by some as the savior of the newspaper and magazine industry.  It may very well be the case, at least for one newspaper, the Wall Street Journal. 

The WSJ, in their iPad excited state, announced their monthly iPad subscription that I won't purchase will cost $17.99 a month.  Not bad when you consider the print version I don't buy costs $349 for 52 weeks or about $29 per month.

Magazines are taking a different approach by delivering weekly or monthly editions, but not annual subscriptions. Esquire magazine can be downloaded advertisements for $2.99, $2 less than the newsstand price, whereas a full iPad issue of Men's Health will evidently carry the same $4.99 price as the paper version.

What if any print publications will you purchase if you are getting an iPad?  Do you purchase any if you have a Kindle, or other e-reader?  Don't be forgetting to be a fan of our Facebook page, and suggest to your friends that they too become a fan, in order to participate in our GRAND contests, one of which is posted now!
