I admit it. I am a RSS junkie. When it comes to reading websites for information, I cannot get enough. Fortunately, there are a number of RSS readers that allow me to quickly scan through multiple sites.

To date, I had been using Reeder ($4.99 - iTunes Link) as my primary RSS reader on my iPad. That is no longer the case as I have transitioned to Mr. Reader ($3.99 - iTunes Link). Why? Simply because it allows me to scan the multiple feeds quicker and it renders the web pages clearer and faster.

When I lazily want to scan the feeds like a magazine, I use Flipboard (Free - iTunes Link). But when I want to make short order of the feeds, it is my new friend, Mr. Reader. By the way, Reeder is still my choice on my MacBook Pro...for now.

It has happened. Plants vs. Zombies has been replaced as my #1 time-waster - oops I mean game - on my iPad. Its successor? Ticket to Ride.

Ticket To Ride ($6.99 - iTunes Link) is a faithful iPad adaptation by Days of Wonder of the same board game. The objective is to build railroad lines across the US (as well as other locales like Europe and Switzerland with expansion packs). You get points by completing long rail lines between destinations that you randomly receive from the deck. You need to match the lines with the color train cards in your hand. The game is simple but the strategy is difficult.

There is solo play against a pretty good AI as well as online play against other humans on a site hosted by Days of Wonder. And with the latest release, there is pass-and-play for up to 5 players. The iPad app is a little expensive at $6.99 with additional maps ranging from $0.99 to 3.99.

So if you have a yearning to be the next Dagny Taggart, then download the game and have fun! Who is Dagny Taggart? Well, that's the wrong question – it should be "Who is John Galt?"
