Last week, I was too embarassed to even ask what RSS meant. But now you've summarized it in a few paragraphs, so that even a Dummy like me can understand. When I was in Grad Skule, I learned that a bad PhD assumes everyone knows what they're talking about, so they can take the simplest topic and confuse the hell out of everyone. But a good Phd takes the most complicated topic, and can explain it to his grandmother. This is essentially what you've done here. Well done! Friar's last blog post..Another Small Town Moment?

I could never get excited about Bloglines, despite my sister's best efforts to convert me. But I became an enthusiastic user of Google Reader when I discovered it. Saves me so much time. Just curious, does Hallmark make a card for RSS Awareness Day? I feel like it deserves a card. Jennifer H's last blog post..Trading places with myself

@ Alex – Thank you! That’s so cool. And Google’s alright. Keep your friends close and your enemies closer

I’m new to Feeds and Readers for the same reasons! I also use both email and a reader and what made me shift to using feeds was having my own customised feed reader – branded with my website name.

I am suspicious of Google and prefer not to put too much info in any one place.

I also read some tweets in my reader

And my favourite blogs
