- To my never ending cribs, let me add the bandwidth problem too ;) I know this is not going to show up the way it should but how worse can it get when you are trying to keep track of so many blogs with a 64kbps dial up connection which times out every 5 mins. This is when i think aggregators, as a utility, time saving utility for the technically motivated will help to keep track of what's happening in the community, anytime anywhere. The funda of write from anywhere and read from anywhere was already a reality but reading something that has been posted say 2 mins back and replying to it instantaneously is really really mind blowing ! Aggregators are an amazing concept and the realisation of the actual thing, because of my desperate need right now is feels like bliss. |
