One of these is Brad Mehldau and the other Evgeni Bozhanov.  Kinda striking, don’t you think?

Google Reader is really amazing.  I keep it up at work and get a live rss view of tons of blogs (which otherwise wouldn’t make it past the network firewalls) and *gasp* Twitter postings.  I don’t have much of a reason to enroll and post on Twitter, but I can still subscribe to whomever and follow their posted thoughts which can be very cool if you find the right people, or “Tweeps” as they are called.

On that note, I stumble across tons of things I can star (think, Bookmark) for later postings on my own blog.  There will be a large post later with several links I want to share, but in the meantime I think a couple deserved mentioning in their own post.

Neil Gaiman is author of a cool little fiction novel I read in college called Neverwhere (I just now see that it is an adaptation of a BBC series he co-created). He’s a very respected sci-fi writer.  I think you will find his blog post Entitlement Issues a fun (and maybe valuable) read.

2) Yes, it’s unrealistic of you to think George is “letting you down”.

Look, this may not be palatable, Gareth, and I keep trying to come up with a better way to put it, but the simplicity of things, at least from my perspective is this:

George R.R. Martin is not your bitch.

Back to Twitter: Wired recently published 100 Geeks You Should Be Following on Twitter.  There’s bound to be a name you recognize on the list.  I added a ton to my Google Reader’s Twitter folder.  A few of note from my subscriptions (most from the list):

  • The Kevin Smith
  • Dr. Tiki, Lala, and Johnny Johnny of TikibarTV podcast fame.
  • Nathan Fillion (for all you Browncoats out there)
  • Felicia Day of Dr. Horrible.
  • Marc Cuban (I also subscribe to blogmaverick, his blog)
  • Trent Reznor
  • Grant Imahara and Kira (she’s pregnant!) of Mythbusters.

And  a big happy birthday to Nick!

A quick edit: work hours are not spent perusing blogs! For every blog/twitter subscription, I have tons of news feeds going on, including a folder dedicated to several financial news feeds.  If you ever want to see my entire list, I can export the OPML file so you can peruse it on your own rss reader.
