5) Start read your blogs, tech sites etc in Google reader (or other good rss reader program or site)

I have about 15 sites I like to browse over and make sure I don’t miss anything about. It includes a few blogs, some tech sites, some special digg categories etc. I have since a year or so, since I started to use Google reader, been able to follow the content on all these sites, by visiting ONLY Google reader. I have been doing that without missing the subject of a single article and it has at the same time saved me a LOT of time.

If you don’t know much about rss, don’t care, its super easy and you will find out soon. You can try it out as follows (takes 3 minutes)

a) Find a site which has RSS functions. Most blogs use it including this one. You can click on the RSS icon to the right in the web address field in the browser.

b) Copy the address

c) Sign up to Google Reader, click on add subscription and paste the address. Do this step for all your favorite sites.

d) Visit Google reader regularly and enjoy. Google reader has good pages also for your mobile phone, visit Google reader from your mobile typing in google.com/reader/m

6) Use iGoogle as your start page.

It is best for those with gmail accounts. You will get a instant view of your email, your google reader, calendar, weather, stock etc etc. iGoogle is easy to use and of course you use your normal Google account for the service. So input www.google.com/i as start page in the settings, configure iGoogle and your done.
