A few weeks ago Feedly for Android was released, first in beta, then in the Android Market. I’ve been running around with it for a few days now and today I’d like to tell you about it. If you’re here for the short story, three words — I love it! I’ve been using Feedly ever since it became popular I guess. Bugs, glitches, but okay, it was a cool interface on top of...

He said that he messed up something in our database on my virual private server and didn’t know what to do because everything stopped working.
