Google Reader

I was informed of this great website http://www.google.com/reader. It allows you to type in the sites/blogs that you visit frequently all in one place and then you can go to this site to see if /when anyone has updated their blog. It helps save you time, instead of going to each separate blog on your own and finding nothing new, you can go to this one and view them all.

You will need to sign in and set up a profile but think of all the time you can save while still enjoying all the great things to read. I think you should try it out and don't forget to add my 2 blogs to it.

Confessions of a Shopaholic

I just finished reading this book. It was a nice light read nothing overly exciting but an easy read. It is about a woman (Rebecca Bloomwood) who works at a financial magazine, yet has a hard time keeping her own finances under control. Basically, she just loves to shop too much.

I know that the movie is out in theatres now but I don't think I will be one of those going to see it.

My next big book is Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy, it is about 817 pages so I am not exactly sure how long it will take to finish. I figured that if I can read this book I can possibly read anything.
