It calls each of these services “channels”. So you have to setup the 2 channels, Google Reader and WordPress, which is very simple! Once you set it up, it allows certain logic to be set. Best of all, it’s FREE! :-D  You will see more and more of posts from me sharing stuff that interests me and I think you should know!
Intuit offers downloads of its TurboTax Basic Federal for Windows or Mac for free. (You’ll need to set up an account before you can download it.) That’s beats our mention from two weeks ago, which featured the Mac download only; physical copies of this software cost $30. It includes a free Federal e-file; state preparation and filing is additional. Offer ends January 20.
