As you know, it can be incredibly difficult to keep up with all the different websites and blogs that you like to read regularly. Often, even remembering which pages you have checked can be difficult - especially while on holiday and away from your regular computer. This is where feed readers come in.

Basically, you subscribe to the webpages and blogs that you regularly read using their RSS feeds. As new stories are added to the webpages and blogs that you read, your feed reader will automatically have been updated with that information. Therefore, you only have to check your feed reader and browse through the stories that are new and read the ones that are of interest to you.

Google Reader is my feed reader of choice. It is easy to use and is web based, which is an advantage when you are travelling. I will blog more about Google Reader over the next few weeks. Here is a screenshot of how it looks.
