Hope spring eternal so I'm trying to get my blog reading ducks in a row and checked out different Readers. I decided to go with Feedly and am wondering what you all use?
Also, if you have a blog and/or sites that you enjoy reading, please share the link! Thanks
Love,

Like you, after looking at various reader options and signing up for one of them, I changed my mind and decided to go with Feedly. I am happy with it.
I like http://ponderedinmyheart.typepad.com/. I realize that Kimberlee's blog isn't new to most of you, but it might be to some of you.

I use Feedly and really like it. The card view looks great on my iPad, which is where I do most of my blog reading.
As far as which feeds I read, there are so many, including many 4Real blogs, I couldn't begin to list them all here.

I switched to Feedly way back when Google Reader changed their formatting. I've been very pleased. I can read it on my iPhone and my computer, and it keeps track of what I've read.
My only criticism is that I can't search on my saved items. That used to be there, and then they removed that capability. I hope they bring it back.
I'm like Theresa--I have many blogs I subscribe. I don't read them all the time, but I like to keep them organized. That's the plus I found with Feedly (similar to Google Reader) is I can categorize. Bloglovin I did not like because I was getting feeds willy-nilly.

I read somewhere that this is going to be a "Pro feature"--they'll be offering search capabilities (and other features) for $5/month.
I switched to Feedly too. I liked the bare-bones look of Reader better, but I found it to be an okay alternative. No technical issues, fairly easy to navigate.

I've been using feedly for a couple of years now, I switched even before google reader was lost. I preferred the layout better.

As for blogs I find we all have different ones that speak to us at different seasons in our life. Before I inundate you with my absolute favs and new finds, what type are you in the mood for?

I use Feedly as well, but haven't been able to figure out the format yet.
