Merry Christmas!

Having Christmas at our house this year is going to be a lot of fun... but it makes me feel all old and grown up.

I think I like Google Reader...

I've been using SharpReader for about two years now to aggregate my RSS feeds. It works very well, and I like the mail client-like interface. However, I'm fed up with trying to sync my feeds on multiple machines.

Enter Google Reader. I had used it a while ago and I wasn't very happy with the interface - its model didn't quite fit my workflow. However, I had heard that Google revamped the interface, so I decided to give it another shot.

Wow. I'm pretty impressed. I like the overall look and feel. I like the option to show only the item titles - which is what I was used to with the fat client. And one feature that's all web 2.0-ish and I think is pretty slick is the Shared Items. I added their HTML snippet to the sidebar. Check it out!
