Hello Fellow Classmates,
Today's Feature: Feed Readers
This week, I had the opportunity to analyze and compare different types of feed readers. I had no prior knowledge of what a feed reader entailed but I was excited to learn more about it. After looking through several feed readers, I realized that there were so many options to choose from. I carefully read each feed reader in hopes of finding the right one for me. As I read through all the different options, I was having a hard time deciding which one to select. Since I am visual learner, I decided to look at some feed reader videos on YouTube. I was able to compare the pros and cons of each video and this allow me to see which feed reader was best for me. After reading and seeing all the feeders from the list, I decided that the Feedly Reader was the best option for me. Why Feedly? Since I like simplicity, the Feedly reader was just the perfect site for me. It's clean and has a simple interface for all those casual readers like myself. Feedly gives the user the option to save up to one hundred sources, share feed, boards, and notes with other members. It allows the user to organize their content to their preference. Everything you need is in one place and this is why I think Feebly was the perfect choice for me.
FEEDLY

Hi Virginia!
ReplyDeleteYour blog is so easy to read!
Thank you for sharing a variety of feed readers.
Feedly was my top choice as well. I liked the simplicity of it and how I am able to organize my account into different tabs. i liked that I can search for sources of my interest and that it provides similar sources as well as those that are inactive.
ReplyDeleteYouTube is also my go to when I need a How-to-video because I don't feel like reading. I did not go with Feedly as my favorite blog reader, I felt like I needed more. I am glad blog readers are diverse and there is a style for everyone.
