To tell you the truth, I really didn’t think Google Reader would benefit me. I like that personal touch of visiting individual sites throughout the day. Of course, I rarely get to them all, but I didn’t think I would like them all combined into Google Reader. I actually love this feature. It is beyond convenient and, contrary to what I initially thought, still attractive and organized to the eye. Because I already have a gmail account, all of the blogs I am following on blogger.com were already listed on my Reader. Instead of searching for the sometimes difficult to find RSS logo on my favorite sites, I just entered them into my Google Reader by copying and pasting the link. So easy! Outside of the blogs from this class, I also added a few wedding blogs for inspiration for my own blog, as well as an RSS feed from The Gazette, the Red Cross, and the Tosh.O blog.
Professionally, it would be very beneficial to establish a Google Reader account. It’s a huge time-saver. In the world of PR, marketing, and writing, I’m sure many professionals follow and subscribe to blogs and RSS feeds as it relates to their careers. Instead of visiting a handful of websites every morning when you get to the office, you can simply log-in to your Google account and get it all at one place.
