About/Follow

Moonblogsfromsyb was the feed/blogroll of The Moon from Syb 

But now that The Moon is no longer active it is now the main conduit for Moon Content.  Some content is automated, but most is now generated by IFTTT via Pocket tags (see below) or directly from Bandcamp, Ubend or Spotify.

The main RSS Feed is: https://feeds.feedburner.com/Moonblogsfromsyb

But now that feedburner no longer supports email alerts you can sign up for them in various ways with Follow.it

Or you can also use the widget on the bottom to get sign up to WordPress for daily or weekly email alerts.

Plus there is the Facebook and Twitter options on the menu above.

The Music Feed is also available via Facebook and Twitter and via Follow.it 

The categories of moonblogsfromsyb are currently made up of:

A BIT OF CULTURE

Follow the A Bit of Culture via RSS

LETS’S GET POLITICAL

Automated content:

Marina Hyde Politics Feed from the Guardian: Brilliant commentary on the absurd goings on in the UK political world.

Follow Let’s Get Policial via RSS 

MUSIC

Top Tuneage via Bandcamp, Ubend or Spotify.

Follow Moon Music via RSS 

Or via Facebook and Twitter or via Follow.it for email alerts.

SOCIAL MEDIA/TECH

Automated content:

John Naughton in the Observer: The professor of the public understanding of technology at the Open University. He is the author of From Gutenberg to Zuckerberg: What You Really Need to Know About the Internet.  And he tends not to mince his words. Below is a couple of good examples:

“the awful moment when the public sector has to upgrade its computers is approaching inexorably. Think of it as technology’s equivalent to the Scottish referendum.”

“Facebook, on the other hand, makes nothing. It just provides an online service that, for the moment, people seem to value. But in order to make money out of those users and satisfy the denizens of Wall Street, it has to become ever more intrusive and manipulative. It’s condemned, in other words, to intrusive overstretch. Which is why, in the end, it will become a footnote in the history of the internet. Just like Microsoft, in fact. Sic transit gloria”

The Observer is part of the Guardian online, and so a Feed is not a problem.

Follow Social Media/Tech via RSS 

THE ECONOMY STUPID

Follow The Economy Stupid via  RSS 

FEEDLY AND POCKET TAGS

I may also add the odd article  to the categories above via Pocket and IFTTT. It can be done on just about any device, and with these two brilliant free services you can easily share an article to multiple blogs/social media. The tags will add articles to the relevant categories in moonblogsfromsyb that will then send the article on to Facebook and Twitter.

WordPress does make it easy to follow categories (see above) or get the full feed or sign up for instant e-mails or of course just follow the original blogs/feeds

The content in brought to you by the wonders of ifttt.com
