Thanks for the comparative review Bob. I admit to being a latecomer to RSS. I had bad experiences with it when it was new and it took me a long time to get back. Not to mention I hated the idea of a standalone reader application. It already takes me too much time to read all the news and posts I need to stay up to date.
But I've been very impressed with Google Reader. It has quirks as you mentioned. It has a tendency to jump when I am scrolling through headlines and the unread count in the navigation pane on the left is not always accurate. Still it's much better than some other solutions. Aggregating your aggregated feeds. Love it.
I will have to give Bloglines a try as well now that you have praised it so highly. Thanks again.
