Bill's favorite tools: Google Reader

Reader

With this blog starting to takeoff, wouldn’t you like to know of an easier way to keep track of the posts on this blog as well as all of the other sites you peruse on the internet?  I want to share a pretty sweet tool that I’ve been using for a couple of years now that I think is pretty awesome.  Google Reader.

Google Reader is an online RSS Feed aggregator.  There are quite a few RSS feed readers but here are the reasons I chose Google:

  • Accessed from any computer
  • Very fast, uses very little bandwidth
  • Awesome keyboard shortcuts that make is super easy to use (just type a question mark for cheat sheet layover when logged in)
  • Works really well on a small screened phone

Google Reader makes it easy for me to stay up to speed on what’s going on, when I have the time to get up to speed.  Just about every site… ahem :), has an RSS feed.
