- Feedly Introduces Ads and I Could Not Be HappierYesterday

Feedly is the Firefox extension that turns your Google Reader into a conversation. Feedly empowers conversation by tightly integrating Google Reader with social media services like Twitter, FriendFeed, Delicious and others. The Feedly team has put countless hours into the development of this great service and has been quick to respond to community needs. A few days ago I noticed that Feedly has replaced their right corner blank box that formerly read - "Sponsor This" with a DonorsChoose.org widget. This is a wonderful development.
Services like Feedly must be profitable in order to continue their innovative work. I am a big believer that you should support "free" services by clicking on a few ads now and then. During this shrinking ad dollar market environment, advertisers are seeking quality. gReaders are information seekers, trend makers, educated and social by nature. They share news discoveries with their own networks and are influencers. I am pleasantly surprised that the first uses of this valuable ad space is being used for a great cause. Now more than ever, we must invest into the future of innovation. Education is the most important element in a free market. Thanks to Feedly, I am now aware of the tech. com - Are You Really Experienced? Looking Back at the FutureOctober 5

The great Charlie Rose sits down for an exclusive conversation with the Oracle of Omaha, Warren Buffett. He believes in the resiliency of the financial markets but cautions it may get worse before it gets better.
“Confidence in markets and in institutions, it’s a lot like oxygen. When you have it, you don’t even think about it. Indispensable. You can go years without thinking about it. When it’s gone for five minutes, it’s the only thing you think about,” - Warren Buffett.

FriendFeed is celebrating their first year today. Ironically, the traditional one year anniversary gift of paper is the very thing that FriendFeed is eliminating in my news consumption diet. FriendFeed allows us to gather and discover an infinite array of information. Part of the fun of FriendFeed is getting the scoop on your fellow FriendFeeders. Posting something new, exciting and interesting will get you comments and likes by others. What you post also helps others understand what your are interested in. Some post political news, others lead the way with techie and socialnetwork trends but you'll also find art, music and literature conversations.
Your FriendFeed page is your headlines- the items that you find most worthy of sharing. Visit a typical FriendFeed page and it is like looking at what that person would print on the front page of their own newspaper. In this way, thousands of Drudge Reports have sprouted up and it's darn exciting.
