--- layout: page title: "Follow the Blog" nofollow: true --- Here's your options for receiving updates about new blog posts: ## Option 1: RSS RSS is the classic way to follow any blog. It comes from a time before aggregators like reddit and twitter stole the show, when people felt capable to manage their own content feeds. We should use it again. To follow over RSS give any RSS reader the following URL... {{site.url}}/feed.xml ...and posts from this blog will show up in your RSS feed as soon as they are published. There are literally thousands of RSS readers out there. Here's some recommendations: * [Google Chrome Browser Extension](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/rss-feed-reader/pnjaodmkngahhkoihejjehlcdlnohgmp) * [spaRSS](https://f-droid.org/en/packages/net.etuldan.sparss.floss/) is my preferred android RSS reader, but you'll need to install [f-droid](https://f-droid.org/) on your device (a good thing to do anyway, imo). * TODO: an iOS reader, for you Apple users. Someone please [email me](mailto:mediocregopher.com) a recommendation. ## Option 2: Twitter New posts are automatically published to [my Twitter](https://twitter.com/{{ site.twitter_username }}). Simply follow me there and pray the algorithm smiles upon my tweets enough to show them to you! :pray: :pray: :pray: ## Option 3: Email I do solemnly swear to never ever ever: * Email you anything that's not a notification about new blog posts. * Give your email address to anyone for any reason. * Track whether or not you've opened the emails, clicked the links inside, or anything like that. Delete every single one, I don't care. With that out of the way... if you'd like to receive an email everytime a new post is published just type in your email and hit "Subscribe" below!
