Today's Story Highlights

RSS Rises From Google Reader's Ashes
Procrastinators may have been surprised Monday when they tried to catch
up on their news feeds by using their old dependable Google Reader only
to find out it was gone. That's right -- Google has shut down its RSS
aggregator for good. It's too late to save your Reader data, but you can
still go through the laborious task of reconstructing your news feeds
from scratch in a Reader alternative.

If Your Kids Use Google, You Must See This
I have a fascination with litigation. One of my early career choices was

Northern reaches of the Linux blogosphere, with the result that there's
been standing room only down at the frostily air-conditioned Broken
Windows Lounge. Linux Girl's most dreaded month is upon us, so it's time
to hunker down with a chilly beverage and while away the dog days of
summer chewing the fat with fellow FOSS fans.

NASA's Voyager Edges Closer to the Stars
NASA's Voyager 1 spacecraft is close to becoming the first human-made
object to travel between the stars. The spacecraft, which is now more
than 11 billion miles from the sun, has entered the so-called "magnetic

sun shooting out into space; and cosmic rays
