I decided that it would be better for everyone if I gave you, my readers, a little guidance. Many of us normal non-cyber-punk-or-whatever-freak people aren't all that familiar with blogs and blogging. I suspect that many of you who happen to come across this little blog of mine don't know how to follow a blog effortlessly. So, here goes:

  1. (This is a no-brainer for most, but...) If you are really interested in my wrongdoings, use the 'Bookmarks' feature of your browser or set my blog's 'Home' page (http://jormathesixmilliondollarman.blogspot.com/) as one of your bookmarks.
  2. The simplest way to follow my undertakings for the common Internet user is to write his/her e-mail address to the little 'Follow by Email' box in the sidebar and click the 'Submit' button. (left) This way all of my posts will be sent to your e-mail account. Easy, right? There is a downside to this, though... The FeedBurner service that sends the mail has a bad habit of sending an e-mail every single day! Ok, I get it: it's not cool to have millions and millions of e-mails saying 'No updates!', but at the very least it's easy and keeps you tuned.
  3. At the moment this feature isn't functioning properly. Click one of the ' Subscribe to: Posts (Atom)' hyperlinks at the bottom of each page to access the RSS feeds! And for those of you, who hate spam... I've decided to add the possibility to follow this blog via RSS feeds. This can be accomplished by clicking one of the buttons under the header 'Subscribe To'. If you wish to receive all of it (posts and comments), you'll have to click on both of the two buttons. But if I'm not completely wrong, most of you will be interested in the posts only. If this is the case, click on the upper button labeled 'Posts'. If you are already familiar with RSS, you can choose the right form of feed yourself, but... Again, I'm more concerned about the average user: click the 'Atom' option. This will enable you to receive the RSS feed in such a way that you can read the posts with (for example) the Windows Sidebar gadget 'Feed Headlines' (Syöteotsikot, in Finnish...). How to do this? Just add the gadget to your sidebar, choose 'Settings' and choose the RSS feed corresponding to this blog. (It is called 'The Million Dollar Man' by default.)
  4. The last option: if you happen to have a Google account, you can click the 'Join this site' button with a little Google logo on it. The button can be found under the header 'Followers'. I won't go into more details. If you feel like this is the option for you, you ought to be able to figure out how to follow this blog using Google Friend Connect.

And that's it. It's not that hard, I promise.
