Oh my, I can’t believe no one has mentioned this to you yet….

there is a MAGIC button for google reader that you can install in your browser. That button is called the “NEXT” button and it is my favorite thing EVER. I never read my blogs in google reader anymore. Whenever I have time to read, I hit the next button and it goes directly to my next unread item DIRECTLY ON THEIR BLOG. Commenting is EASY PEASY. I love love love it! you can even do it for “categories” like one of mine is crafty stuff an say i only want to see if any of the crafty blogs are updated, so I hit the “next crafty blog post” and ta-da! It’s the best invention ever.

You can find it in your google reader by clicking on settings and then go to the “goodies” tab and it’s the second item down called the next bookmark.

I use the google reader on my igoogle page. I usually click over to the article on the site, but the google reader lets me know there is something new! .-= Jennifer´s last blog ..Aplomado Falcons =-.

I adore google reader! I do have a problem with oversubscribing, but today was one of my occasional weeding days. I dropped a few. I'm sure i'll still pick up occasional posts from those blogs through twitter, but didn't read them enough on reader. .-= Jessica ´s last blog ..Let's Make a Deal! =-.

I love it too! I follow way too many blogs and Google Reader makes it a whole lot easier to keep track of my favorites. I usually only visit each blog I follow about once a month or so because I tend to just read someones most current post and then space bar through the rest. I try to comment on at least 1 post though, so people still know I’m reading and interested.

Use space bar to scroll through the posts. Divide your feeds into folders so that if you’re in a Crafty mood, you just get the crafty stuff, and hit “j” to just go from post to post to post (great for when you have 737 unread posts in your reader and don’t necessarily want to read all the reviews of restaurants in Columbus, Ohio. Not that that number is staring at me right now or anything…)

Love Google Reader, but if I don't keep it open in my browser, I tend to forget to check it. Like the last two days. I didn't know about the "show details" link in the upper right corner. Thanks, Christy! That's cool! .-= Amy Warden´s last blog ..Bug Off Giveaway =-.

I’m a google reader girl. I think your blog popped up as a suggestion from Google reader.

What I love most about google reader is that it’s portable. I can catch up at home, work, or on my phone. Yay!
