Google reader
I think Google Reader has quickly become my favorite way of keeping up with all the blog feeds I like to read. Do many of you use it?

I LOVE Google Reader! It’s the only way I view blogs now. If a site doesn’t have an RSS feed I usually don’t visit much. I do miss seeing the personalization of peoples sites but in some cases that’s exactly what I don’t miss. As a bonus, if you’re into buying things on eBay - you can subscribe to an eBay search (look for the RSS logo in the URL after you do a search) in Google Reader, so handy! Thanks for letting me share my excitement for this tool on your blog. I’ve been a fan of your work for many years! See you in Reader. -Dan

Right now I’m using the Vienna software, it’s great but only works for Mac. I have some friends that use the Google reader and they love it.

Yeah, I was using Bloglines until this month. A friend recommended switching over to Google Reader, and after a day I was sold.

GReader is amaizing … i saw a friend from work using it… as well as Del.icio.us and asked him about it… he gave me a quick tour about it and I’ve been using since… Other Google “services” or applications are also my favorite… iGoogle(u can have almost everything there…), Calendar, Docs, Photo… also show it to mi GF and she is a fanatic too, now

I’ve got the Sage extension for Firefox open as I write this, it’s nice having it able to just pop up on the side of my browser whenever I want to add a blog or check feeds, similar to Flock’s feeds I guess. Google reader looks kinda cool too though, I’ll check it out

I use it too. They could have made the interface a little more spiffy, right now its looking quite plain, but as far as functionality is concerned I have little complains.

You bet!
Google Reader is especially useful on the iPhone/iPod Touch!
I love RSS…

I use Google Reader everyday. I live and die by RSS feeds. In fact, if a site doesn’t have one, I’ll stop reading it after awhile. Too much work to go out and find what I’m looking for when it can be delivered.
I must be lazy.

yep, that is what I use too, that is how I noticed this post (I still visit the sites though)
I got started after seeing this video a few months back about some guy that read like 600+ feeds a day down from 1400 feeds - crazy
Here is the link to that site:

I actually read this post of Google Reader and immediately knew that I had to comment. It’s very useful, and now I have tons of news, webcomic, blog, and other feeds. usually I check everyday, and RSS feeds in general are a really convenient way to organize websites.
