    I like to get that choir moment when someone gets what RSS can do and how much effort it saves, and then the clouds part and the choir sings. You wonder how you got along without it.

    I'm old school and often you'll see me using My Yahoo as my RSS reader of choice, it works and I can have my blog feeds right next to the weather, ski reports and to an extent it's what I'm used to and I'm too busy (lazy?) to change right now. Anthony was laughing at me the other day for this, but what would you expect from a self confessed pl/sql fan :)

    At least you're using a reader at all, btw I hear iGoogle calling you.

    People just don't understand how RSS can help them. I had one person ask me for help making the RSS work. I think this person was clicking the icon and wondering what was supposed to happen. I hope after viewing the RSS in plain English video that person saw the light.

    I've started using iGoogle a little on the side too, I feel like I'm cheating on Yahoo! they didn't do anything wrong but something new and slightly sexier is hard to resist.

    Never been much of a personalized home page consumer, so I can't comment on which is better.

    I do like Reader, and it's an inertia thing for me too. I use NewsGator when I need internal RSS feed reading.
