Real Estate (and Other) News in One Place

It's my regular "about new technology" blog post coming at you today. If you're like me you read tons of websites and blogs over the course of a week and month. And from time to time I find myself thinking, "Now what was that web address again?" I forget some of the sites I thought I'd remember. (Does it happen to you?) Those days are over with Google Reader. (I know some of you already use a newsreader, but I want to tell you about this one anyway.) With Google Reader you can subscribe to all your sites in one place and every time new content is posted, it will feed to Google Reader. Then all you have to do is sign in to your account and all your sites with their new information will be right there. I've got a few screenshots in this post of my account just so you can see how it sets up. The above (clickable) picture is the log in page where you can use your Google Account codes to sign in to Google Reader. (If you don't have a Google Account, you can sign up for one.) Once you're signed in, you can begin subscribing to your sites by typing in their web address and then clicking add. (Click on first picture below to see.) Now you'll notice you're subscribed to the Sugar Pine Realty GMAC feed is the example. (Click on second picture below to see. Of course, I typed in the web address of the feed to have it added: Click here for Sugar Pine Realty feed.) Next, you can click on the particular post of your choice to read. (Click on third picture below to see. In the example, you need to click on #1 first, then #2.) Finally, the Sugar Pine Realty post that you're interested in pops up for you to scroll down and read. (Click on the fourth picture below to see.) It's been a quick and simplified look at how to use Google Reader. It's a great way to streamline your online information intake (if I don't say so myself).
