It is cold outside! I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday and happy new year, mine has been alright enjoying family in town and just relaxing. I haven’t really done anything but unpack for the past couple of weeks, but I did spend sometime on my News Bubble Reader.

Here is a link to the application file: DOWNLOAD

One thing, the application only works on Macs, so if you have a PC go to the lab. So, if you have a few minutes give the app a test drive and please, please, please respond with feedback.

THANKS!!!
Steve
