My favorite RSS reader

Web Worker Daily had a post on whether iGoogle or Netvibes was better.  I just wanted to voice my vote that I too have been down the path of the My Yahoo page, to iGoogle and am now extremely happy with Netvibes.

I stopped using the My yaho page when Istopped using Yahoo’s mail client.  While I see they have made many changes, I so much happier with the Gmail format.  When I saw the Google hompage, now called iGoogle, I loved the ajax-y goodness of it and the fact that I could have everything right in front of me.  Then someone introduced me to Netvibes and it just clicked more with me. Not sure if it’s the layout or what, but with all the random feeds I read constantly all over the place, I find Netvibes just an easy way to manage them all.

I even went back a couple days ago to see if I could like iGoogle again.  I love their attempt to have skins, but then I found the same capabilty and even better in Netvibes (mine is now a pretty green and pink with grass blades on top – reading the news is pretty now! 😛 ).

So I am a Netvibes gal after all.  </unpaid endorsement>
