    If you don’t use RSS all the time, you should. It’ll save you tons of time and hassle.

    1. Yeah, RSS is wonderful. I use both My Yahoo and Google Reader to get RSS feeds.

      My Yahoo is simpler than Google Reader but less powerful. I set up my parents with My Yahoo and they love it. Tends to work well for 10-20 feeds, and Yahoo has a few other modules that give a more visual access to Yahoo stories.

      When I looked at iGoogle (2-3 years ago), it got too coupled into searching from the Google home page and slowed things down. So I use Google Reader which is completely separate from Google Search, but is easy to access from the Google menu bar when you are logged into other Google services like Gmail.
