I Might Be Switching to Google Reader

[fr]

J'aime Google Reader comme lecteur RSS. Surtout la facilité avec laquelle on peut partager des billets qui nous ont plu.

Robert loves Google Reader. Tempted me to try. I think I love it too.

I’ve been using Bloglines for quite some time now (still doesn’t make me a good blog reader). I find the interface for Google Reader clearer. It was easy to export my subscriptions as OPML from Bloglines to try Google Reader.

What really wins me over? How easy it is to share the stuff I’ve liked with you. I’ve even added it to my sidebar. See? Maybe Bloglines does it (I’m sure it does) but it wasn’t obvious enough and I never got around to doing it. With Google Reader, I just click on the “share” button at the end of each post I want to add to my share page.

    Personnellementent, si effectivement la nouvelle version de Google Reader est (fort) intéressante, je préfère encore NewsGator Online (version anglaise) que j’associe avec NetNewsWire. Par contre, depuis fort longtemps, j’ai délaissé Bloglines.
    Il faut noter cependant que, me semble-t-il, un des avantages qui reste à Bloglines réside dans la rapidité qu’il a de charger et d’afficher les articles.

    Au revoir Bloglines, bonjour Google Reader…

    Il y a des jours, il faut accepter l’évidence. Bloglines, célèbre lecteur de fils RSS en ligne (en gros, un site permettant de lire rapidement les nouveautés publiées sur d’autres sites, blogs, etc.) commençait à me courir sur les ne…

    […] I told you I liked the sharing feature of Google Reader. After a week or so using it, I worry that I’m “sharing” stuff instead of putting it in del.icio.us. It’s not a problem per se, but it is because I can’t search my shared items. […]

    […] Why did I do such a thing, if I love the sharing feature of Google Reader so much? […]

    […] If you read this blog “on the blog”, and look at my very cluttered sidebar, you probably noticed there is a feed of my “shared items” from Google Reader hidden in there (grab the feed!). “Sharing” is the reason I switched to Google Reader over a year ago. […]
