two google aps i love

Google Reader and Google Calendar. With Google Reader, compile RSS feeds and syndications of all your favorite blogs and read all of their updates in one place. If you like reading a billion blogs like me, this is so much easier than going to each individual page just to see if they've updated yet. Readers and feed aggregators have been around for awhile, but I like this one because Blogger and Google use the same account - you can probably sign into Google with your Blogger account. (Try it and let me know..) Plus, once you're logged into Google, you can use all of their other free aps. For instance...Google Calendar. Very similar to the calendar in Outlook if you've ever used that one. It's fabulous because I can get to it from any computer, it's on my Google homepage when I log in, and they even offer a number of ways to export your calendars - embed it into your website, share it via link or email, create community calendars, get mobile access, manage more than one calendar at a time, etcetera. Try them, maybe you'll like them.
