Wonderful! I had no idea that I could consolidate my reading into one easy interface. I had already established various personal and professional feeds. Now I can add to that for business purposes by having Google look for companies that I want to follow. Any news articles will automatically go to Google Reader. This will be a tremendous help for me as CFO. I am going to be able to keep track of key customers and their trends. I want to make sure that they will stay current with us.
Down side? Perhaps too much information. Yet it will be easy to scroll through and quickly eliminate what I don't want. So far I really don't see a down side!

Technology rocks!
I absolutely love my iPhone. It really has it all! In fact I would be hard pressed if I lost it as I have incorporated it in many aspects of daily living. How so? Glad you asked!
1) Weather - I have several apps that keep me current with weather now, but also allows me to explore it as a hobby. I follow hurricanes in due season. And I also have one that is beyond my comprehension. Proof that I am willing to learn...or so I tell myself.
2) Educational - I bluetooth the iPhone to my car radio and listen to a wide variety of podcasts. Topics? Christian growth, weather, music (really doesn't count as a podcast) and financial news.
3) Christian growth - I use a flashcard app to memorize Scripture in English and Spanish. And I have the ESV Study Bible for daily reading. Not to mention I have the Reina Valera Spanish Bible, too!
4) Literature - The Kindle app allows me to download literature to the iPhone quickly. The reader interface is great.
5) Entertainment - Seems I get hooked on a game for awhile, wear it out and then move to the next one. I still have various games that I have yet to explore.
That might wrap it up, but I seriously doubt it. Have I mentioned that I like my iPhone? Should I be a sales rep?

Picassa Points
Okay. Let's beat the learning curve. My task is to create a link and comment on it. So here goes. http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/sredir?uname=rusparovoz&target=ALBUM&id=5370917055452792465
Wonder why I picked this set of photos? Because they are cool! Water has a hypnotic effect and the final two photos are excellent shots of bottles...with a touch of water, as well.

7 1/2 habits - narrowed down
What is the most difficult habit? Developing an overarching goal.
What is the easiest habit? Perseverance. I am a creature of habit and can reach a goal...if I break it down into steps.

Why blog?
My goal is to see what I can accomplish professionally with a blog. Where do I go with this as a CPA? As a CFO? Do I want to create multiple blogs or an all-purpose blog? How about personally? Same type of question(s). A blog for each hobby or interest? Blogs for Christian interests? Lots of questions!
