Learning about RSS feeds

I confess, I sorta knew what these were before, but really hadn't utilized them much. I just set up a Google Reader account last month, but so far I like Bloglines better. I've always been frustrated with how hard it is to keep track of people's blogs, but this makes it super easy to keep track of all sorts of stuff. I can see this being handy in all sorts of ways, both for my personal and professional life. I love it!

That is darn strange since except for the SLOOOOOW update on personal blogs I am liking Google Reader over Bloglines. What don't you like in Bloglines over GR?

The thing that is most appealing to me at this point, is that I find it easy to keep track of what I haven't read yet.

I confess it is all still very new to me and I will probably settle with which ever one I get most comfortable with first.

What are your reasons for prefering GR?

I had the same problem with GR until I noticed the Show New/Show all toggle. If you click on the show new it will only show you the unread articles.
