Google reader is rad

Do any of you use Google Reader? It's a web based RSS feed reader. For those not in the know, many sites publish RSS feeds, these feeds can then be brought into a feed reader so you have one nice place to view updates to all your favorite sites.

Google Reader lets you "star" posts you like for review later, and it also lets you mark ones you like to be shared with other people. All the items you mark to share get put into your own RSS feed that other people can view. Confused yet? Don't be, it's pretty cool stuff. It allows me to create a feed containing only the best stuff out of all the feeds I've been reading.

At the bottom of the right hand column on flattire.org you'll see our feeds, any version will work depending on your reader. At the bottom left is now my shared feeds. So as I'm doing my daily surfing and see something interesting, i'll flag it to be shared with you wonderful people. So does anyone else use a feed reader?

This picture has nothing to do with this post except the movie title matches part of the post title

"So does anyone else use a feed reader?" No. Your marketing skills at trying to convert me to use this RSS thingamabob feeder doohicky reader thingy have failed.

ReaddyEddie - You're missing out! You'd be able to waste time 10x as efficiently.

I didn't realize google had a rss reader. I used to use Opera to check craigslist for stuff--but now I can do it ON THE WEB!
