Are any of you all using Google Reader? I find it incredibly time-saving, I can surf about 4 times the number of web sites in about 1/10th the time I used to spend.

Google Reader pulls in one liners of each new update of the web sites you visit, and if you like the one liner, a click pops up a paragraph (synopsis), and only if the synopsis (the lead-in) grabs your attention, do you click on the full web page and go there. I can surf 300 new entries in about 3-4 minutes typically.

http://www.outside365.com - I'm currently traveling in Asia for a year and haven't been in the backcountry. But this spring/summer/fall involves the Himalayas, Karakorum and Pamirs.

be for warned it's my everything blog, from myog, backpacking, car camping, dirtbiking, 4wheeling, snowboarding and complete randomness of my outdoor adventures. So if you are against designated areas and prejudice towards other forms of recreation i wouldn't even bother. I don't like prejudice and selfish people anyhow.

Mostly about trips and gear. Probably going to add ultrarunning to it soon.
