RSS simplifies matters. When I see a new post, I just head off to the blog itself. Not sure if I have time to visit all the blogs I read just to see if there are updates. RSS simplifies matters.

There's no way I could keep up with the 300 blogs I do without it. Though if you want to see what's REALLY going on, you must click into your favorite blogs from time to time. Patti's blog is a good example of one that is amazingly visually appealing. This one is too! I think RSS is a good option for information, but not for interaction.

So I added a <a href="http://www.feedblitz.com/f/?Sub=52138" title="Feedblitz" rel="nofollow">Feedblitz email option</a> in addition to an RSS subscription option. And I'm going a huntin' for other ways out there that make it easy for all to have a full blog experience. Lucy, you make a good suggestion about blogarithm. I'll take other suggestions.

Couldn't agree more. RSS is not the best format for following your favorite blogs. I use blogarithm.com to subscribe to blogs I want to keep track of. Hi Chris – Thanks for this post.

Blogs are meant to be read on their original site. I would not toss out RSS readers (especially my own) because with careful use of them, I do get to read far more than clicking through the good old blogroll would allow. I would reconsider the purpose of a blogroll though. If you blogroll is the same as your RSS feed, that's one thing; if it is not, then what purpose does it serve? Chris, I agree.
