Reading your favourite blogs on iPad


If you're reading this post on a desktop, take your cursor over to the top-right side of the page and hover over the three buttons. Click on the bottom one and you'll see an option to add to Google Reader. (On iPad you should see two buttons, and you need simply to touch the bottom one for the same options.)

Note: If you're not already signed up to Google Reader, you might not see the option – you'll need to sign up at http://www.google.com/reader and you'll also need to be signed into Google to subscribe to a blog.

Now you can read sketchyTech from inside Google Reader, but more importantly you can free yourself from the web browser when using an iPad and read all your blogs in one place with apps like River of News.

If you prefer the more casual approach and don't want to sign into a Google Reader account, but want to be able to quickly search for RSS feeds by name then Need for Feeds might well be for you.

Aside from gathering together all the blogs you follow, you'll find that blogs like sketchyTech will load images much faster and the overall experience is much improved using these (free) apps.
