Amazon

Monday, June 9th, 2008

Ok, I used the Dville link to Amazon and placed an order. Now, I forget, what does that do for us? I remember it was something cool for Dville.

Also, on the front page of Dville it is showing the featured product as the Furminator. WONDERFUL!! If you have kitties or a fluffy puppy, get one. They are great. I got the small, blue, one for my kitties. It works wonders.

How to Use RSS Feeds

Densaville.com has RSS feeds. Did you know that? You can subscribe by email or, if you are a member of our Forum, you can see the feed in the footer or the Densaville.com information section. But if you’re ready to use a feed aggregator (mostly because there are more sites than Densaville that you wish to monitor, and/or you use more than one computer and it would be nice to have your most frequented sites stored online) here is a tutorial from Video Jug that you might find useful:

Steve the Cat goes to Mars

Thursday, June 5th, 2008


The entire community of “astrophiles” (did I just coin a word?) is watching the Phoenix Lander’s activities on Mars. It’s so exciting to think that images from ANOTHER PLANET are being beamed back so clearly.

I realize that many people aren’t as into the wonders of science as I am, but even if you have a passing interest, you can surely appreciate the adventures of Steve the Cat, the first cat on Mars! The Phoenix Mission is being conducted by Steve and his adventures and observations on Mars are a fun way to keep up with the Mission’s findings. Kids (and adults) can send questions and comments to Steve who replies all the way from Mars.

You can find the above video and all the info on Steve the Cat on Steve’s website, which is maintained by ground control at NASA.
