Feedly Will Rock Your Google Reader
Using a feed reader is almost a sure bet that you will find in any marketers toolbox.
There are of course a multitude of choices of which one you chose to use but it is hard to beat the Google Reader.Not only for the fact that it is easy to use and that google has of late been adding some really cool features and functions, but being able to integate it with a bunch of googles other services and programs in my book puts it at the top of the list for reading rss feeds.
That being said though, I have been using a Firefox add-0n (and yes it works with Flock also) that has put using google reader over the top.Its like have google reader on steroids.
The add-on is called Feedly and if you have not heard of it and you use google reader you really should check it out.
Feedly is an add-0n that intrgrates with google reader that not only allows you to manage and read your feeds in various ways, but also give you the ability to share content on twitter and friendfeed,
find new content relevent to your various feeds and also see the conversations already going on in a number of ways.
Heres a video I put together that shows just a fraction of the coolness Feedly brings to your google reader

Do you use any other add-ons for google reader or do you prefer a different RSS reader?

Very informative video and awe-inspiring concept: feedly.
As I write this comment, I’m not aware if you have a series of videos to help us implement and utilize all/most of the advantages of feedly.

Thank you for the comments
@Alan the .rar file is a compressed copy of the video to download to your machine for viewing when you what. You can openit by using WinRar which you can download from http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm If you are on a Mac OS X, Stuffit Expander I believe should be built in to the system that you can open it with also.
@Dbob I only did this video to highlite some of the cool things Feedly adds to using Greader for those interested in maybe using it. I don’t have videos on Feedly planned. If you have some questions though I would be glad to see if I can help. Just drop me a message from the contact page.
Thanks for the video. That will help me greatly.
I’m always amazed at just how much there is to learn out there!
take care.
