<p>Today we had short discussion at work about reading comics — this time it was Dilbert strip. As I read it via <span class="caps">RSS</span> I have few hours of delay (no <span class="caps">RSS</span> on Dilbert website). Some guys read it as one of pages which they open each day and one use good old cron to automatically fetch comics. So we have three methods used and there is also ‘get strip via email’ way…</p>
<p>Why I use <span class="caps">RSS</span> which has delay instead of loading website directly? To make it faster — I do not need to see it first but do not want to miss it. I have too many websites/blogs/comics in Google Reader to read them directly — with <span class="caps">GR</span> I just look at Firefox status bar and see does there is some stuff to check/read or not. It really save time (and bandwidth).</p>
