A new way to read wowlookwhatigot.com!

wowlookwhatigot - summary page on Google Currents
Reading a wowlookwhatigot blog entry on Android tablet
using Google Currents.

Just accidentally found a new way to read the wowlookwhatigot.com blog (and by extension any blog, but it's this one that counts, of course). If you use Google Currents on an Android phone or tablet, you can add an arbitrary blog feed to your reading list as follows:
  • Select "+Add Subscriptions" at the top of the left hand menu. 
  • Tap the magnifying glass icon at the top right off the screen to open the search dialogue. 
  • Type in 'wowlookwhatigot'
  • Currents will report "No results funds for Wowlookwhatigot" - but wait!
  • After a few seconds (hopefully) it will come up with listings under the heading 'Feeds'.
  • Tap "Add free of charge"next to "wowlookwhatigot.com !" and the news feed will be added to the 'Feeds' section in Currents.
You can now get your wowlookwhatigot.com fix any time! (See photos).

I assume this, or a similar procedure, will work in any news aggregator app which handles rss feeds. Have fun!
