RSS First Timers

If you've never used RSS, you should really give it a try. I made this site and I like it, but honestly if I were you I'd never come here — I'd read it in the feed. If you'd like more info, head to Wikipedia and read up, or just sign up for Google Reader, it works quite well.

Ficciones by Jorge Luis Borges
cover image for Ficciones My first hands on with Borges... Absolutely amazing. So far beyond what I've been reading lately (mainly non-fiction and some late 20th century authors).
