Use a News Reader!

I posted a while back about using Bloglines. I’d just like to take this opportunity to remind you all about it again. If you find yourself manually checking this and other blogs, by going to the site to see if there are new posts, then you need to use a news reader. A news reader will keep track of what blogs you read, notify you of new blog posts, and should keep track of what you’ve read, all in one place. So you won’t have to visit ten or twenty or thirty blogs every day to keep up with all of your favorites. You can also find news feeds for comics, weather, and lots of other stuff to track all in one place.

Bloglines is my favorite, but there are several other web-based news readers. If you look at my XML news feed, you’ll see FeedBurner’s list of popular online news readers that you can check out. If you’ve been checking this blog manually, you owe it to yourself to get set up with something like Bloglines.

    i’ve been giving bloglines a try lately. my one question is, can you apply different skins or are you stuck with the default?

    I think you’re stuck with the default.
