If you read many blogs and don't already know about RSS feeds, you're me a week ago.
Then I discovered
Google Reader, and the intarnets will never be the same again. Or at least, the blogosphere. I don't know if it's possible to syndicate LJ stuff, though I imagine it probably is if I do some digging, but the Friends page really sort of does the same thing, and I like coming to the site to do my LJ reading.
However, for the quintijillion gaming blogs I've recently added to my "read regularly" list, a feed + reader is a godsend.
Like all converts, I'm wondering how I didn't stumble onto this at the very least months ago. /scratch head
You may now proceed to call me a noob.
