I admit it. I haven't figured out how to read all these wonderful blogs. I'm also spotty on following the blog threads here. If this question has been answered, please direct me .

How do you organize your list of blogs to read them efficiently? If you don't read them daily, how do you keep track of where you left off? Any other tips?

Love,

I just read every now and then - when I am gifted with some me time - usually about one weekend a month.

I have the blogs listed in my favourites under a "blog" folder.

Angie, I find it easiest to read via an aggregator called Bloglines. We just had a chat about how this works in another thread--there are instructions there for how to set it up. It's free! I could *never* keep up without this.

I also use Bloglines (after Lissa suggested it - and walked us through setting it up ). It has made it very easy to keep up with all the blogs I read. You can see at a glance which blogs have something new because they are in bold, although I find sometimes there's a lag, but that's probably because I'm checking too often!

I'm not sure where the Blogger/typepad question thread went...
Lissa, I think in blogger to get a "permanent link" or what typepad calls "trackback", you hover over the time/date stamp. You will see "permanent link" show up. Press and then a new screen appears with the post. I copy the url.

At least, this is what I have done.

Yes, I do that too for permalinks within a post, but if I paste that same URL into my typepad trackbacks box, it doesn't register. But even if I don't try to trackback it, Blogger seems to automatically pick up incoming links and add them to the end of the post.
