Are you a blog stalker like me??? Can’t get enough of certain blogs? Or maybe you are getting married and have a whooole slew of vendor websites/blogs that you frequent.  Well I just found something really awesome to stalk all of your blogs in one place! Google Reader!  I personally have just become acquainted with this little gem, tucked away nice and neatly in my gmail account.  Don’t have gmail? No problem, sign up here for your free account.

Google Reader Blog Love

I have a ton of blogs that I stalk and am constantly using my Bookmarks tab to see if whomever I’m stalking at the moment has updated their blog.  Many times I’m disappointed because they haven’t! LOL  But with Google Reader I just log in and instantly I can see if any of the blogs that I subscribe to in google reader have been updated.  I can even look at the blogs within google reader and read past and present posts while there! I love it!

One of the limitations though I notice is that you have to leave google reader in order to leave blog love.  I definitely recommend leaving comments on those blogs that you love. It helps the author know that people are enjoying their content and keeps them inspired to produce more blog posts.  Leaving blog love is like giving the author a nice warm hug! WE  LOVE BLOG LOVE! So when something strikes you, let us know.  🙂

Here is a screenshot of Google Reader.  You find a blog you love, click subscribe, enter the URL of the blog and VOILA! You have all your blogs under one resource and instantly see when the blogs author provides a new blog post! Give it a try!
