I recently had my eyes opened up to Google Reader. It’s one of the most useful online resources I’ve come across since I started reading blogs. There are heaps of Thailand blogs and sometimes it’s difficult to keep up to date with all them. If you use Firefox and have RSS feeds bookmarked for ease of use then you’ll know that the limited space makes it difficult to bookmark all the feeds you want. Google Reader is one solution you might want to look at. I’ve got all my favourite Thailand blogs subscribed to and I can see when they’re updated and check for new content in one browser window.

Firefox users, to make the most of Google Reader, install the Better GReader addon so that when you visit a blog you can add it to your Google Reader subscriptions on the fly. The addon has an option to optimise the Google Reader skin, but I leave it turned off because I think the original skin is more user-friendly.

With Google Reader you don’t need to laboriously trawl through the Thailand blogosphere looking for updates. Once you’ve got it installed, check out the links to the Thailand blogs and other websites in my right-hand sidebar. There should be a few things to get you started.

Google Reader is not just limited to blogs, however, as you can subscribe to any website that offers a feed, including The Nation’s website so you can get all the latest headlines from Thailand.
