Improve Efficiency & Network Online with Google Reader

    Posted by Pete Caputa on May 22, 2008 7:38:00 AM

    I'm gradually switching from Bloglines to Google Reader. (I'm not the only one.) 

    For my blog newbie readers, the reason I am using a feedreader like Google Reader is to accomplish the following: Once I started reading more than 10 blogs, it became a hassle to go to 10 different websites. A feedreader allows me to subscribe to all of these blogs and read them inside my feeder, so I only have to go to one site to read 10+++ blogs. The feedreader also knows when there's a new article on a blog automatically. So, when I log in, I only have to skim the new stuff. SO MUCH MORE EFFICENT!

    For all of my readers, I'm switching to Google reader because it allows me to share posts with other people who also use Google Reader. It also allows other people I'm connected with on Google Reader to share stuff with me very easily. So, please connect with me if you're using Google Reader too.

    I'm also taking this opportunity to clean house. Reading "tech industry" blogs is less and less important to me. Helping my clients generate leads online is more and more important to me. So, it's more important that I use my blog as a networking and teaching tool. So, I'll be reading a lot more of my clients' blogs and some of the blogs of their peers - in order to assist clients in their online networking and blog readership building process.

    In short, if I read you and you read me and you want to stay connected, connect with me on Twitter, Linkedin and/or Google Reader.
