Using Google Reader Without Spending Hours On It

Posted on July 28th, 2009 in My Internet Notebook

Hi All,

I wanted to share some YouTube videos that Ed Dale made on using Google Reader. I must admit, I have only used it sporadically since last year when I did the ThirtyDayChallenge. Now I am working on maximizing the time I actually spend working versus learning about it. That is one of the traps I fell prey to because I can spend hours learning about marketing only to find I actually did very little of it. I am taking steps to correct that partly by putting my Google Notebook to work as an idea book for each of my blogs. I’ll post about that another time. Meanwhile, Ed does a good job about using Google Reader to keep up with RSS Feeds without spending hours on it. Even if you know how to use this reader, the third video will show you how to make use of it in either the iPhone or iPod Touch. I like that because it frees me from my laptop. How cool is that?
