I had never heard of a blog reader until a couple of months ago, and now I can't do without one. Instead of going to each individual blog to see if there is anything new and instead of having separate RSS feeds for each one, I subscribe to my blogs through Google Reader. There are other readers out there, but this is the one I know, and it is easy to use. I can group the blogs by subject matter and it automatically tells me which ones have new posts and shows the first part of the post in a window. For short posts, I don't even have to go directly to the blog. The highlighted blogs in the image below have new posts.
This link will take you to a tour of Google Reader. Then you can set up a free Google account, if you don't have one already, and follow instructions.
