"C" is for Convenience

For those that "follow" other blogs, I found a really helpful tip from an iheartfaces post.  Previously I read all of the blogs I followed one of two ways: 1) by clicking each post link from my Dashboard individually, which opened a new tab or 2) reading them in Google Reader, by expanding or collapsing each post, which still didn't take me to the actual blog or allow me to see all of the formatting.  Neither option was ideal, so I followed this tutorial on iheartfaces, and reading my blogs is much faster and easier now.

Here's a summary, if you already have a Reader account:

1.  Go to Google Reader Settings
2.  Click the "Goodies" tab
3.  Scroll down to "Put Reader in Bookmark" and drag the "Next" button up to your toolbar.

Now you can click the "Next" button from your toolbar at anytime, and it will take you through all of the unread blog posts for any blogs that you follow.  iheartgoogle.
