Google Reader

I heard about a new thing at the end of May from Everyday Mommy and have been hooked ever since.

Google Reader

Google Reader is a feed aggregator, it constantly checks to see if any of your entered websites updates and displays it for you.

Instead of clicking on all my favourite sites (not just blogs, but news etc) when I have time to sit on the computer there is a list of all updates. Google reader also shows any pictures that have been loaded.

Keep track of your favorite websites
Stay up to date Google Reader constantly checks your favorite news sites and blogs for new content. Whether a site updates daily or monthly, you can be sure that you won't miss a thing.
Simplify your reading experience Google Reader shows you all of your favorite sites in one convenient place. It's like a personalized inbox for the entire web.

The only negative thing is that you can't comment on a blog from this platform

(which explains why I have been so slack commenting lately) and if people are using a site metre style program you don't show up on their logs.

I would highly recommend this product, it saves me so much time!
