Google Reader For RSS Feeds

I have to admit, I was a bit late in taking advantage of RSS feeds. Anyone who utilizes them will probably attest, like I will now, that they are an incredibly easy and flexible way to keep track of recent content on several web sites. While I have “experimented” (I use this loosely because I consider experiementing in this case to mean I tried it for a short bit) with several RSS readers freely available, the one I found myself really liking was the Google Reader.

Since I am already a Gmail user, the interface to Google Reader is vitually idententical with the look and feel. Additionally, the speed didn’t seem to suffer at all considering it is all hosted online without me having to install anything. This is also the biggest advantage of Google Reader over a client program – I can access Google Reader just as easily from home and work without having to sync anything. If I add a feed, read an article, flag something, etc., it reflects in my Google Reader account so I can pick it back up from any web browser.

If you already have an RSS reader you like, keep at it, but if you like to read feeds from several locations, I would highly recommend you give Google Reader a look.

I too was a late comer to RSS feeds. I’ve found it to be very handy when trying keep track of many sites (like this one) on a daily basis. In fact I found this one through my Google Reader. It’s very handy with an easy to read interface. I use it daily.
