Steve and I use to use del.icio.us for our link gathering efforts for the show. I’ve been a fan of reddit for a number of years but I’m more of a lurker then a submitter but I think that is about to change. Today I started a new subreddit called geekfit and if you are a fan of reddit feel free to submit cool techie health and fitness related links and ideas here so we can all share. If we like the link, product or service we’ll be sure to mention it and you on the show!
