Good explanation of how Klout works. My current score is 32. http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Mashable/~3/235Q7r5Ze44/
Side load Your Amazon Kindle
I bought my wife a Kindle Fire for Christmas and have been researching how to add Android apps to the Amazon book reader. By default, the Kindle only allows browsing and downloading of apps through their proprietary website and not the Android Market which leave many apps out in the cold. It’s not [too] hard to accomplish this feat and this tutorial from www.tested.com will walk you through the process – hit the link below. (Note: any subscription or paid apps will not run, but many free apps will, like Dropbox, Opera Mini, Dolphin Browser, GoogleReader, Feedly, etc.)
[Disclaimer: I'm only using her Kindle when she is NOT. So no cheap jabs about me hogging her new toy.]

Vacation Day Yields Yumminess.
I’m officially coining the term “Hillsdale-icious”. For no apparent reason other than I demolished a pot roast sandwich at Caffe Azzurri for lunch today. Took the day off and enjoyed a lunch date with the Mrs. She had a loaded grilled cheese sandwich with some sort of bisque-like soup, injected with cheese and hidden under large croutonian shaped crunch squares. Best meal I’ve had (out) in quite awhile. When in Hillsdale Michigan, look this place up. Nice views of Baw Beese Lake too.
Verizon
I’m appalled that there are still large companies – ‘media types’ nonetheless – that still refuse to update their websites to support multiple browsers.
When I visited the Verizon website using Google Chrome, I was met with a reminder that… “You are using a browser that verizon.com does not support. For a better experience, please use a supported browser.”
Why can’t I have the optimum experience using Chrome?
