The Ultimate Low Calorie Snack
For a while I’ve had a bottle of Iguana Radioactive on my desk.
At first I would use it to add a bit of spice to my lunch.
Later, between meals, I would sometimes open up the bottle and take a good whiff or two of that aromatic goodness.
Yesterday, late in the afternoon, I took the next step, and simply dumped some out on to a napkin, then snacked on it by dipping the non-writing end of my pen into it.
Yum. I really like this stuff. Spicy, but with lots of flavor.

RSS on Web Pages – New and Definitive List
A long time ago, I put together a post full of links to tools for putting RSS feeds onto web pages. That page has been pretty popular, but I have not spent a lot of time maintaining it. Inspired by TechCrunch’s coverage of FeedoStyle , I have put together what I hope will be (after lots of reader contributions) of the definitive list, which you can find here. Please send me updates, suggestions, and your feedback on each of these tools.
Definitive RSS on a Page List
Here’s my master list of ways to put RSS feeds on web pages:
- JavaScript RSS Box
- RSS Xpress Lite
- FeedSweep
- RSS to JavaScript
- RSS Digest
- RSS Equalizer
- Jawfish
- Feedroll
- FeedoStyle
- CaRP
- Grazr
- RSS Sense
- RSS2HTML
- RSS2HTML PHP Script
- RSS2GIF
