I used the star method before, but the keyboard shortcuts are a great tip. its faster, i just didnt ever know about them, i am a bit too mouse oriented. by the way, in the first paragraph of this post there is a 0 at the end, is that on purpose?

I've got a few feeds to be read every day, and especially the short cuts make a lot of sense to me. The star method is pretty cool as it compares to previewing material before actually working with it. When going through an article reading the sub-headlines or bullet lists would add even more value to this approach. Thanks for this tip I already applied. mark I have been looking for some technical instructions to use Google Reader more efficiently.

I have now (reluctantly) started using the Reader. I put several blogs (nearly 50 - of which yours in included) in a folder entitled "my favorites" This way when I am short on time, I will at least be sure to read the posts of my favorite blogs. I will often times click the link from Google Reader (and all its generic faults) and visit the blog in person. While this system is not ideal, I have found that I am taking more control of my free time, which I desperately needed to do.
