Migrating to Google Reader

It took something slick and nice for me to make the move away from Bloglines and over to Google Reader. Something like, say, a Brand new Google Reader for iPhone which pretty much kicks ass.

That plus Bloglines slow as molasses in January in Anchorage update speeds, the occasional hiccups where they'd grab 200 old, old posts and pretend they were new.

Sorry Bloglines, we partied like it was 1999 for a long time but I've found myself a new feed reader and it integrates with the rest of my Googleverse spectacularly (though I'm not especially thrilled with the iGoogle home page widget).

Also, the ability to embed read articles and posts in a sidebar on the blog is pretty sweet and easy to do which adds alot of utility and practicality to the whole deal.

Breaking My Arm Patting Myself on the Back

Congratulations are in order, I have, as of 10:12 pm this September 13th, cleared my entire queue of posts and updated websites on my Bloglines feed page. I haven't had a clean slate for many months now and I actually even read the posts as I moved down the line.
