That’s the list for this week. Enjoy!

I’ve been making an attempt lately to increase the amount of posts on my blog. So..I’ve decided to start posting interesting links to articles that I come across in the RSS feeds that I regularly subscribe to!

These posts won’t replace my regular “blogging” posts, but hopefully they will give you all something to do throughout the day! 😛

I’m going to be updating the list throughout the day each time as new feeds arrive, but for now I’m posting some that are a couple of days old, just to catch up. So just take some relax time and checkout the articles that appeal to you!

If I left out something that was just ridiculously worthy of making it into the post, then throw it in a comment for me! 😉
