Another google timewaster to read a load of bulls... + advertisements.

Just a note, one other great feature is that you can label "important" blogs in Google Reader, and have a separate "NEXT" button for just that subset of your feeds.

It's like a Stumble! button for my blogs. Awesomeness. And I was able to migrate it over from Bloglines in like 2 minutes, super easy.

The only thing I DON'T like is that while there IS a subscribe button I can put up there, I can't seem to find an unsubscribe button.

Unfortunately you have to go into Google Reader to unsubscribe to blogs.

Hey Shawn, that was a great tip. I haven't got around to using Google Reader (my GF does) and maybe now I will.
