Here’s a good way to catch up on all your blog reading and still look like a dedicated employee: read your blogs using Workfriendly! Simply visit the Workfriendly page, enter the URL of the blog or web page you want to read and a pop-up window will appear. It’ll contain the text of the blog or web page you wanted to read, disguised to make it seem as if you’re editing a Microsoft Word document.
For instance, here’s this blog as it would normally appear:
And here it is, as shown by Workfriendly:
If you’ve got really nosy people reading over your shoulder, Workfriendly has the “boss key”: move the mouse cursor over this button, and the web page you’re reading will be replace by what looks like a Word document with hints on how to overcome procrastination.
Right now, Workfriendly has two themes: Windows XP Blue and Windows XP Silver. I’m sure if you nag them enough (there’s an email link on the Workfriendly page), they’ll make Mac- and Linux-themed ones.

I am blogging this purely for entertainment value of Joe Middle Manager and Jane Office Worker and all whose purpose is to merely crank out TPS Reports. Unlike those mindless drones, I am working hard on all my current projects to maximize customer and shareholder value!
