Thanks for this post Tony

After reading this post and decided to import my feeds from MyYahoo into both Bloglines and G-Read and test both side by side for a time.

I fell in love with Bloglines for the cool features you mentioned but it looks like I will have to settle on G-Reader because I get to many “There appears to be a server communication problem” with Bloglines. I am sad because I really like bloglines but a reader should speed things up and the communication errors occur to frequently.

I will try them again in a few months but by then I may be addicted to G-Reader. We’ll see.

I’m using Google Reader b/c anything Google comes out with Terry immediately adopts for all members of the Storch family who use a computer.

I have been using Bloglines for over a year now and I love it for many of the same reasons

Tony,

Thanks for the props! We’re so pumped that old-time Blogliners love the new Beta. We have even more Bloggy goodness slated for 2008. Happy New Year!

I really love Google reader. I’m not too sure about this new sharing thing, but I absolutely love the easy and integration into iGoogle and using it as part of Google apps.

I tried bloglines back a few years ago and found it to be tough to navigate. I went from that to myyahoo to google reader.

Pretty sure Google reader does 2 but not one…there is a cool search now that lets you search every blog you subscribe or in your defined folders…one new thing I like is that I can see what other friends are sharing in my reader if they have goog reader and a gmail address.

For me #1 isn’t a big deal.

Bloglines. It’s mobile verison (http://m.bloglines.com) works like a dream on even the most meager web enabled cell phones, too.

I have a Mac so I get all my RSS feeds in a mailbox below my inbox. I grew tired of logging into Bloglines each time I wanted to read posts and I love using Mail in the Leopard OS for this!
