Nifty iFeature: Pulse Reader
by Sunfyre on Feb.12, 2011, under General
I’ve been playing with my Verizon iPhone and I stumbled upon the “Pulse” reader for both iPhone and iPad. If you search the feeds for “Sunfyre’s Nest”, you can quickly add the Nest to the feeds!
Note: The feed it finds is the raw one, so it won’t calculate into the Feedburner numbers. If you’re techno-savvy, you can directly add the feed “http://feeds.feedburner.com/SunfyresNest”, or import it from your Google feeds if you already subscribe there.
Also, if you haven’t yet, check out the Nest on your iDevice, Blackberry or Android phone. There is great themes set up for the mobile readers. The iPad theme in particular is really cool, and the blog is mobile enabled so you can quickly add the Nest to your home screen. The instructions pop up on your first visit from your iDevice.
A season for giving… and receiving!
by Sunfyre on Dec.07, 2009, under General
The holidays are upon us. No matter what religion you follow, or elect not to follow, I think the season for giving is universal. So are holiday wishes! When I began blogging in September, I never thought I’d have this many people read my blog. I didn’t advertise, I just began writing, and through a few strokes of luck, other bloggers found me and linked me from their own blogs.
During this season of giving, I will be choosing one random commenter between now and Christmas (my holiday of choice) to receive their own Pandaren Monk companion pet, as a small gift from me.
I also have a few holiday wishes, and for each of those that you help come true, I will be choosing another lucky visitor to receive a Pandaren Monk (or Lil’ KT, if you have a monk. I prefer the monk as half of the proceeds go to charity).
My wishes are simple, and shouldn’t be hard to achieve. I’m not asking you to spam for me, however I have a feeling most of you are the “go to” moonkin on your server where a lot of the other, perhaps less progressed balance druids go to for advice. Refer them here! There’s a lot of information for them to gain from Sunfyre’s Nest, as well as the other blogs that I link to in the druid blog roll.
Wish #1: 250 readers/day
– I currently average between 120/150 unique visitors a day. I’d like to see this number to grow to at least 250!
Wish #2: 100 Twitter followers
– I often break news on Twitter before I can get to a computer to write up a post. There’s also a lot of banter between myself and other moonkin bloggers such as Lissanna from Restokin and Ballerkin from Moonkin.info
Wish #3: 150 RSS viewers
– I personally love RSS. It’s how I keep track of many blogs, and with my handy Droid, it syncs with my Google Reader account to keep all of my blogs synced to my phone in case I get bored in a meeting at work!
If you’re new to the Nest, it’s easy to follow us via RSS or via Twitter, the links are in the top right hand side of the screen.
Have a happy and safe holiday season!
