In an age when many of us are wondering how to keep up with all the news blogs and scholarly updates, Google (as Google usually does) provides voracious information-seekers with a fantastic answer. Their answer is: Google Reader, a RSS reader. Basically, a RSS reader uses RSS (Really Simple Syndication) technology to house and organize news and blog feeds into one convenient web tool. Google’s product outshines other RSS readers because its concise design translates clearly into a mobile format, so that anyone with a PDA can read feeds on one neat, legible platform. Many other blog tools fail when it comes to actually being read on a small mobile screen, so Google is a welcomed change (for me anyway). When on the train, or waiting for a late colleague, you can keep up with scholarly and personal news on a PDA without having to open up your laptop!
