I rely too much on Bloglines. Worshipped it alot. So when it failed late in the afternoon, I did not know what to do. I have my blogrolls but then I was lazy to use it. So yes, Bloglines is very useful to me but it makes me lazy. I like one-stop service.
My Bloglines feeds are back up again. Time to read blogs, the lazy way.
try tis fella. I've been relying on it as a backup ever since bloglines gave me a big scare a few weeks back.:) that said, if anyone else has a recommendation for a smaller program that starts up faster I'd be glad to make a switch!
ReplyDeleteball.of.yarn: thanks. good to have backup. So now I go search for another aggregator to backup the backup. kekeke....
ReplyDeletei still haven't checked out bloglines... i'm so dino.
ReplyDeleteanna: It's good if u want to squeeze time to read blogs into your busy schedule.
ReplyDeleteI too uses Bloglines as I am unable to access Blogspot and Liquidblade directly (kena block by the cheena gahmen). So Bloglines is an excellent way of getting in between to bypass the blockade.
ReplyDeleteIt also helps to let you know to skip those who have yet to be updated. Lazy to waste time getting onto a blog only to realised that it hasn't been updated.
I added my own blog as a control. That way, if I have been updating my blog and it doesn't show up on Bloglines, I would know that Bloglines rosak again and so, like you, it would be back to Blogrolling.
I'm guessing I'm one of the few swa ku bloggers left who doesn't use bloglines. Too lazy to even check out what it actually does. But since you recommend it so strongly, I guess I'll go try it out sometime.
