Ok, so I have feedblitz subscriptions on my blog, but keep reading about goodle reader and other "readers"... I'd love an easier way to keep up with reading my favorite blogs...

What do you use? Is it easy? I've been dragging my feet because I only want to streamline and fear I'd end up adding hundreds of blogs! :)

TIA!
 
<quit reading most blogs because it was a time consuming monster. I think that's why Facebook and MySpace have become so popular.
 
I use Google Reader. Very easy.. just add your subscriptions then you can check in and see ALL the updated posts and you can read the posts from your google reader too.
 
I use Bloglines. I've tried Google Reader but for some reason I just can't get into it, which is kind of strange because I love Gmail. My only complaint about Bloglines is it seems slow to update feeds but I'm not sure if that's a feed issue or a Bloglines issue.
 
I use google reader too...love it..love how you can see who's updated only...you can scroll through them all on one page too which is nice.
 
I LOVE google reader. but I love ALL things google. I have my igoogle homepage that shows my emails, google reader, and even my hotmail. love it!
 
I also use Google Reader and like it a lot. I like being able to see which blogs have been updated. On days when I don't feel like going through everything, I can just pick and choose which ones to read, and leave the others for later or mark them as read and move on. I have added quite a few blogs to my list, but I really only read the stuff I want to. It's nice to have it all in one place.
 
I've used Bloglines, but got overwhelmed with all the blogs on there...so I deserted that one and started with Google Reader...again, overwhelmed. Now I use a desktop program called Feed Demon, but haven't really looked at it too much or know what many of it's features are.
 
I use google reader. I used to use newsgator, I don't remember why I switched, but once I got used to it I liked google reader better.
 
I agree with the Googlers! Have iGoogle as my homepage too, and everything is all in one spot! Gmail, Geader, most used bookmarks, weather, calendar, time, post it notes

Love it!
 
I use bloglines and love it! I had tried google reader and I'm not sure what i didn't like - maybe I found it slow? Can't really remember. I might try it again though now that I know there is a gadget for igoogle - I am slightly addicted to igoogle :)
 
I used to be a big fan of Bloglines & found Google reader hard to navigate. But then Bloglines had several weeks of problems updating feeds so I made myself deal with Google. Now that I am used to it I can't remember what I found such a pain originally.

I'm also subscribed to certain blogs through Facebook
 
I love google reader, it's the only way I can remember all the blogs I do read! Plus I'm blocked from everything at work and I can at least see the reader text. :)
