Google Reader is a fabulous free tool for subscribing to and reading any RSS content. I personally subscribe to each student’s blog in my Google Reader account so that I don’t need to manually visit each blog to view the latest contributions. You should subscribe to my blog as well as the blogs of all the other students in our course.
