Technofriends

This post is centred around the Newbie readers of this blog. This post introduces you to the Google Reader and also guides you to other important concepts.

Before you start using Google Reader, you need to understand RSS ( Really Simple Syndication), for that you can prefer to go through the below embedded video which talks about RSS in simple terms.

In short RSS is nothing but an xml file placed on your webserver, which can be read by various feed reading softwares. Google Reader is one such software.

Once you are aware of what RSS is all about, you can also check out this below embedded video from Google which talks about how to sign up for Google Reader and how to add your first subscription in this video tutorial.
