Google Reader is free, fast and very smart
There's millions of blogs out there, and they're impossible to keep track of. Google Reader makes it easy. It's a simple page that you can bookmark and check every day. When a blog you like changes, Google Reader tells you. Click on the box, the post comes up and you're up to speed.
Because Google Reader uses RSS, you can track more than just about every blog. You can track company updates, searches, anything that features that little mysterious RSS symbol.
This lens shows you how. It's easy. You set up the first one, and then it's just a click or two.
Here's my blog to get you started

- This link will take you to a page where you can choose the Reader or your Google homepage. Either one is fine. Google will ask you to sign in or to create an account. It's free. Once you're signed in, it'll just go straight there in the future.
