After not getting the updates to a friend’s blog, I started researching other blog reading options.
There are so many out there — online and offline; free and subscription.
I knew that I wanted an online one since I like to check my favourite blogs at home and work (shhh!). And I totally don’t want to have to pay for one. My trusty friend, Google, helped me out and I found this article (read).
I tried:
- NewsGator
- NetVibes (too complicated)
- Google Reader
And I really shouldn’t be surprised that I liked Google Reader. It had all the things I was looking for and more. It has the capabilities of communicating (so to speak) with my blog and I could publish blogrolls and other neat things.
Sorry Bloglines, but you need to get your stuff worked out.
Google…thanks for being amazing, yet again!
