Not much has changed since the last update, mainly because I really haven&#8217;t found too much to add to the site. But, having said that, I&#8217;m working on a mobile app that will give readers a rss feed of this site. Hopefully there will be more, but for right now I&#8217;m starting small.<\/p>\n<p>I haven&#8217;t ever made an app before, yeah, I&#8217;ve started probably about 10 or 12 in the past. For some reason I never seem to finish them. I&#8217;m not sure why, but it could be that I don&#8217;t use my phone for really anything. I&#8217;ve got a few games that I play from time to time, and there are at least a few occasions that I&#8217;ve needed it for navigation while I traveled, but I&#8217;m really not a phone person. I think that it&#8217;s been hard for me to understand why people use their phone like they do and why an app is warranted. I do understand, I just can&#8217;t identify with them. Nevertheless, I think it&#8217;s time that I at least try to get into the &#8216;app game&#8217; so to speak.<\/p>\n<p>The app is going to be focused on the blog posts and to do this I needed to call the site to get the updated entries. The only way I could figure out how to do this was to use an RSS feed. I&#8217;m not sure how well this will work in the long run, but I think it gives me at least a starting point.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, if you&#8217;d like to take the new and improved RSS feed out for a test run, you&#8217;ll need some way to parse the code. Most people will use an extension on their browser (at least until the app is finished).<\/p>\n<p><i class=\"fa fa-arrow-right\"> <\/i><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.kennethcurtis.com\/articles\/feed\">The link to the RSS feed<\/a> <\/strong> (add to your rss reader)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I think I&#8217;ll make this update to KC&#8217;s art &amp; technology short and sweet this morning.
