I can’t imagine trying to keep up with SQL Server news without using Google Reader. It’s a web-based console for all the web sites you want to follow, all in one place. Every morning, I open it up and within a matter of minutes I know if there’s any important news in the community.
There are other RSS reader tools too, like Bloglines or Outlook, but I prefer Reader because it works so well from anywhere. I can catch up on my blogs from my iPhone or from any web browser, and I can share articles with friends with a single mouse click.
I put together a set of quick Google Reader tutorial videos over at SQLServerPedia to show what it is and how I use it. If you decide to give it a shot, let me know what your Google account email address is so I can subscribe to your shared items too.
