Except for the fact that John Atkinson refuses to rename his company at my request, Pimp My News is a useful product. It lets one receive audio recitations of one’s RSS-enabled blog posts. I’m using it on my iPhone and occasionally let the thing read me some of Pete’s team’s rantings on Mashable and a few other “cant-miss” blogs. I like it because I can close my eyes and listen for a while.
The automated voice is actually getting pretty decent. I used the product almost a year ago, and it’s improved tons.
John has a video about how to get more out of the service:

ChrisBrogan.com runs on the Thesis Theme for WordPress
Thesis is the search engine optimized WordPress theme of choice for serious online publishers. If you’re a blogger who doesn’t understand a lot of PHP, Thesis will give a ton of functionality without having to alter any code. For the advanced, Thesis has incredible customization possibilities via Thesis hooks.
With so many design options, you can use the template over and over and never have it look like the same site. The theme is robust and flexible enough not only to accommodate a site like ChrisBrogan.com, but also to enable the site to run far more efficiently than it ever has before.
- Go on a guided video tour of Thesis and see the amazing things you can do with this theme! Seriously, you’ll love it.
