If this is the worst that I have to worry about…
So, you know, I get easily plagued by decisions and I’m always trying to figure out the best way to do something.
When I first started this blog, I fell in love with the Blog Surfer. The only downside was that I can’t add non-WP blogs. Which, is a big deal because there are a ton of non-WP blogs that I try to read.
Someone turned me on to Google Reader so I ended up adding all my blogs to it and it works great. It makes it really easy to keep up with the blogs.
But after a while, I kinda sorta realized that I miss my Blog Surfer.
So I tried to go back to my Blog Surfer but quickly realized that this could potentially be a huge PITA because I’ll either have to delete my WP blogs from Google Reader or I’ll have to constantly mark them as read in Google Reader if I read them in my Blog Surfer.
Sigh. Decisions are hard.
So, for all you WP users, what do you do? Blog Surfer, Google Reader or a combination of both?

I use blog surfer for all the WP blogs and google reader for all non-WP blogs.

Do you find it annoying to flip back and forth between the two?

Not particularly. In my bookmarks I have a folder called “Daily Routine.” In there, I have my email accounts, msg boards I check out every once in awhile, etc. I just look at the two at different times usually. Not a big deal at all.

I’m a Google Readerer. I like to have them all in one place and I have on on my iGoogle homepage so it’s just there when I open Google and I can read them as I please.

I have them all in google reader. I just go to WP to see if any WP people replied to my comments…which reminds me that I forget to go check that a lot.

I have no idea what your talking about…I’m stuck in the 90’s I guess.

P.S. Day one of your “jail” idea went well. I was able to find a blaze orange jumpsuit that fit him and he didn’t complain at all!

Janie, glad that you were able to score a blaze orange jumpsuit for the jailbird!
As far as the Blog Surfer and Google Reader go…they are both ways to easily read blogs without having to click on each and every one.
