While there are many feed readers to choose from, we recommend Google Reader. In fact, Eric recommended it over a year ago, and it has since added some great features that, in my opinion, make it the best feed reader available. Setting up Google Reader is free and very simple to do. In fact, if you followed Eric's advice and set up a Google account, you already have access to Reader. If not, go to www.google.com/reader to get started.

Below is a gallery of screenshots that will give you an overview of Google Reader's main features. If you want to see the screenshots in their full detail and read my captions that explain each one, click on the player to go directly to my PicasaWeb page gallery. Otherwise, read on for a more in-depth look at Reader.

(HINT: You can turn on the captions in the slideshow below by clicking on the speech bubble icon .)
