The Bloglines feed reader used to be my reader of choice.
I haven’t been using Bloglines for a while now, since discovering the two readers reviewed so far in this series, NewsGator Online and BlogBridge. I don’t recall actually doing a detailed comparison, but one disincentive for not continuing to use Bloglines was that for […]
BlogBridge offers itself as more than a feed aggregator, styling itself as “the ultimate info-junkie system”.
BlogBridge project leader Pito Salas and his team describe themselves as “a bunch of entrepreneurs / enthusiasts who enjoy living at the edge of technology and social behavior.”
Unlike some other popular feed readers, such as NewsGator Online which was reviewed […]
In this short series on my five favorite news readers, I’m listing NewsGator Online first, not because it’s my daily default reader, which it isn’t, but because it is:
excellent in its layout and usability
a web service, so there is no download required (good for travel)
the reader which served me best for quite a long time

Darren Rowse has an interesting post today which might seem at first glance a bit esoteric for anyone other than dedicated bloggers, but which raises some important issues about how pleasing or otherwise the experience is for readers of blogs.
As Darren observes, the question Should Links Open in a New Window? is “an oldie but […]
I don’t know whether it’s a first for blogging conferences, but the ever-innovative people at BlogHer have arranged, in tandem with their BlogHer ‘07 - “A World of Difference” conference in Chicago this July, a virtual world BlogHer in Second Life.
This should be a boon for those who can’t make it to Chicago and are […]

Frank’s topic is “To blog or not to blog; that is the corporate question…”.
Some time ago I had the pleasure of presenting at another event in Sydney where Frank was also a […]
One of the many benefits of maintaining a blog is that you have a way to publicly test out ideas about challenges you face in your business. That might seem odd to people who believe you should always be “up” in communicating with your customers and others in your industry.
Don’t share any challenges (a.k.a problems), […]
Academic year calendars vary considerably around the world. In the USA it’s now graduation time, which has provided a blogging point of reference for the community of bloggers here on the b5media Business Channel.
Hence my post yesterday on new beginnings in the business blogging context.
On Interview Chatter, fellow Business Channel blogger Darlene McDaniel has an […]
One of the challenges with a lot of the WordPress themes I check out is that while they look very nice from a “pure design” (if there is such a thing) viewpoint, they are often not going to be easily adaptable to how a range of small businesses may want to present themselves online.
Sure, there […]
There’s a silly song some of us used to sing in years gone by:
There was an old man named Michael Finnegan
He had whiskers on his chinnegan
