Google Reader

Google Reader October 16, 2007

I can’t believe it took me so long to discover Google Reader. It is like having a web version of Outlook for your blog feeds, making clear which of the blogs you follow have posts on them that you have not read yet in much the same way that Outlook draws unread messages to your attention – bold print plus a number to indicate the number of unread posts.

What’s more, as some readers of this post already know but others may not yet have discovered, you can add a widget to your blog that will let you share those posts from other blogs. That is the widget that has appeared very recently on my own blog, and which I admired for a long time on Marc Goodacre’s blog before figuring out where he got it.
