i switched to google reader 2-3 years ago. i don't know how much bloglines has advanced since then, but at the time, gr was a gazillion times better.

Bill - I switched from Bloglines to Google Reader a long time back and I really like it a lot more

GReader is my first port of call every morning. But if you're averse to it for some reason, there are alternatives, including Firefox addons. I believe Feedly is quite popular.

I also changed from Bloglines to Google Reader years ago, and I haven't looked back :)

Looks like an overwhelming unanimous response, Bill. GR it is then??

I'm on Bloglines with Bill. I know for a fact that GR is a billion times better - unfortunately it also looks way to web 2.0y for me - it feels wrong for simple feed reading! Bloglines is clean and simple in comparison.

Bloglines did what it always does, de-glitched after about ten minutes, in time to prevent my little tantrum from getting serious. :-) I do use GR -- I use it to "archive" FriendFeed likes, comments and Refs Wanted items! Like Euan, I just don't like the GR interface. Logic dictates a switch but -- I just don't wanna.

I'm another one who's tried GR but stuck with Bloglines. (I've tried GR several times, mostly when Bloglines is having one of its little tantrums--but always been more comfortable back in Bloglines. There's also the "too much Google, not a good thing" feeling.)

Bill, I've used both Google Reader and Feedly. Google Reader works in any browser; Feedly, if I'm not mistaken, works only in Firefox as its a plug-in. However, both make it far easier to read RSS content online than Bloglines.

Last time I looked at Bloglines I couldn't understand it, in the same way that I can't understand MySpace or the menu at KFC: my brain just seems to be lacking a vital file conversion program or something.

I use RSS wizz in firefox. Simple and effective. Maybe a little resource heavy though.
