How do you read this site?

If you're new here, you may want to get my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting! I couldn't do this without the help of my commenters!
I’ve been wondering how people read my blog. I know I personally read most blogs I frequent via RSS subscription in Google Reader.

If you enjoyed this post, make sure you subscribe to my RSS feed!
I have often wondered about RSS as it sounds much easier, being told when people have updated their blogs, but how does it work?

I use Bloglines. Except when The Plumber is in town (site is unavailable), and then I use Google if I’m really desperate to read about other people’s lives.

Managing how to read blogs (and not only) it is quite challenge
I dumped visiting sites in favor of RSS few years ago, since I was compulsively checking too much websites and wasting way too much time (BTW I have discovered that when I started measuring time spent on different tasks before computer - I suggest other to do it at least for some period - interesting results).
With RSS reader I have one place where I can get content I want to. Of course subscribing too much feeds can also work as black hole sucking all the time
so I do deal with it with Google Reader as my primary RSS reader, where I have subscribed essential feeds, and in Thunderbird I have other feeds, which I read occasionally.

I read most blogs through Google Reader, however as yours is one of the blogs I link to on my sidebar I usually link through to you there. And since you post so much, there is always new content so that works. Reader of course is great for people who don’t post as much.

Like Sarah, I read your blog via RSS and don’t comment (normally). I’m new here so I’m just trying to get my footing.
