I found Bloglines cumbersome compared to Google Reader. I like Google minimalist approach to design and the emphasis it puts on functionality. It always amazes me how well Google's pages are organized. Even ads at home page are not distracting.
- In Google Reader the home page gives a clear overview of content and functions.
- Adding subscriptions was a breeze.
- Google Reader allows starring favorite posts.
- Trends option gives interesting statistics about your reading and subscription trends by months, day of the week, and time of the day. So you can monitor your own HIB behavior.
- Google Reader allows adding notes and sharing them.
- Posts and notes can be shared through blog as well as through emails.
- Posts can be viewed in three different modes: feed settings, expanded
and list view.

Irene, I agree with you about Google. It just seems so much easier to work with. I'm sure the simplicity of it annoys the "pro"s but I appreciate it. ~Jen
I guess I will have to give Google reader more of a shot. I didn't add too many feeds to it.
