I Love Google Reader

For what seems like forever now, I’ve used the iGoogle home page to keep updated with the latest from the RSS feeds I subscribe to. Over time I’ve had a tough time keeping up with all of the subscriptions, but I never really felt moved to try anything else.

That changed, however, when my iGoogle feeds stopped updating properly.

Today I finally imported the RSS feeds into Google Reader, and I’m in love. The interface is great. I can quickly navigate to the content I’m looking for.

If you’re stuck in the stone age like I was with the iGoogle Homepage, it’s time to give Google Reader a shot!

      I will give it a try ! I consider myself as a big RSS consumer as well. For the moment I mainly rely on Firefox and Netvibes to aggregate RSS feeds. But in both cases I am limited by the number of the feeds added (Netvibes: it needs to fit in one page / Firefox: the RSS feeds added creates a never ending list (too LARGE). Let’s see if Google can respond to my needs.

      As far as technology considered it is developing tremendously in regards to google the change is very more. The home page is updated from the latest feeds from the RSS feeds. This is very useful to the Google readers.

      Did you try the rss reader included in Opera? It’s amazing! The most comfortable RSS reader ever.

      I also use igoogle for keeping track of RSS feeds, though as you mentioned, they sometimes have problems loading fully. I will have to try out Google reader and see if I like that better. Thanks for the recommendation.

      I roll through a lot of my blogs via Google Reader at work. Most of what I look at is related to my work, some of it isn’t. If my network guys took an interest in me, what would they see? A lot of time in Google Reader, or every blog that Google Reader is set to tap? If they can see everything, is there a way to prevent that? Short of setting up a proxy server (though not ruled out as an option)

      Google reader is really amazing. It keeps on getting better and better. When I am out of my home, I use it to check out all of the bogs. Actually, I tried it out a few months back and I have been using it since.

      When I’m offline I love to be able to read all blog posts for a given blog. Google Reader now offers the ability to read offline. However I haven’t been able to figure out a way to download all the posts in a certain blog easily.
