Procrastination Nation

I’ve got a serious issue when it comes to my insane need to procrastinate…all the time. Even now, I’ve had all of a three day weekend to work on my essay or even my speech, and yet I’ve not even glanced at either. As usual, I lack both focus and determination, and I already know that both of these will come back and bite me in the butt.

Of course, I could be working on either one of the two right now, but am I? No. I’m sitting here on my bed typing a blog entry for absolutely no reason.

Seriously, procrastination should be counted as a disease; it’s definitely infected me.

Manga Readers

After a few hours scouring the internet for the best way to get my manga on a nook, which I currently want above all else, I lapsed into my usual searches. You know the ones I mean, where you’ve searched the same thing several times just to see if you can get a better or more recent answer? Unless I’m the only one that does this, which is entirely possible.

One of my favorite searches involves my two favorite things – my Android MyTouch 4g, and Manga. I prefer the area where the two overlap – the wonderful world of Android Manga readers. In the year since I’ve had my phone, I’ve tried several. Before, with my iPod Touch, I had relied on an app called MangaDL, which (thanks to jailbreaking) I was able to dig into and change the files to allow me to download mangas that the app had blocked, which was anything US licensed and therefore anything worth reading.

When I finally got my phone, it seemed like the world was at my fingertips, but with more options came more failures. Thus, I did what everyone in my generation does when they have a question. I googled it. The answers I got back were less than satisfactory. Though I ended up with some good suggestions, it seemed that most articles and reviews that offered a comparison were completely out-of-date. Some of the most relevant pages came up from months or even years ago. New apps were completely disregarded, and the old ones were usually reviews on older versions.

Still, I don’t like making my own opinions – I’m the kind of person who likes to have someone else do it for me when it comes to certain things. I wanted to hear why one app was better than the rest, but ended up with a slew off apps that tried to do the same job without a real decision as to which one was absolutely perfect for me.

So for all those who are like me, and want a review that isn’t outdated or irrelevant, I’ve decided to write my own reviews. I’ll try and get to every app on the market, and by then I assume I’ll have plenty to do with editing reviews, and writing reviews on new apps.

This will probably go on a new blog, to preserve sortofazombie as an outlet for my ideas. I just wanted to let anyone who might stumble across this learn of my plans(:
