Q&A: If I ‘Unfollow’ one of my Facebook friends will he still see my posts?
Question from Elaine G.: I have a very annoying Facebook friend who drives me nuts on there, but for practical reasons I can’t unfriend him.
I followed your instructions in this post to “Unfollow” him to prevent his posts from showing up in my newsfeed, but is he still able to see mine?

Q&A: How can I view a list of my active PayPal subscriptions?
Question from Andrew: I have several active PayPal subscriptions that clients use to send me a payment every month, but I can’t find them in my PayPal account.
I’ve searched my entire account from top to bottom, with no luck.
I know I have to be missing something. Can you tell me how to find them? Thanks for your help!

Q&A: How’s the best way to wire four rooms in my house with wired Ethernet connections?
Question from Carla: I recently purchased an 80 year old farm house and it’s currently being renovated with pretty much a complete overhaul.
I’ve hired an electrician to completely rewire the house and install a new service panel in the basement. He’s supposed to start the job next week.
He told me I should also let him wire the three bedrooms and the den with wired Ethernet connections because it’ll be really easy and relatively inexpensive since he’ll be running wires for the electrical service to those rooms anyway (the walls and ceilings will be bare at that point).
That sounds like a great idea because I’ll have desktop computers in two of those bedrooms (I’ll be using one as my office).
The thing is I’m not sure he’s planning to wire up the Ethernet connections correctly. I really need your advice on that.
Q&A: Can I create an RSS feed for a single category in WordPress?
Question from Blake V.: Hi Rick. I have a WordPress question if you don’t mind.
I blog about Bluegrass music. I have categories for new CD releases, show dates, equipment reviews…you name it. If it pertains to Bluegrass music I write about it.
I’ve had several people ask me if I could create an RSS feed just for the “Show Dates” category because that’s the only thing those particular people come to my blog to see.
Is there a setting I can change or maybe a plugin I can use to create an RSS feed just for that one category?

Picture of the Day: “Sunset over the River Ythan”
From photographer David Langan: I headed up to Newburgh to my intended spot at the River Ythan as the sun began to set in a relatively clear sky. I arrived on the banks of the Ythan to a low tide so I had to trudge out over sticky and smelly mud flats to get to my intended position.
By the time I had the camera on the tripod and my composition sorted, the sun had all but disappeared behind the hill.
By this time several squadrons of midgies where attacking me so I made a few very quick exposures and headed back to the sanctuary of my car as quickly as I could. Considering the rush I was in when making the photo I am more than happy how it turned out.
