RSS feeds

I've used Google Reader for some time and enjoy that service because it keeps me up to date on the blogs I'm most interested in. I can check if any of them have updated without visiting each site individually.

However, through Bloglines, you still have to jump to the sites to read full articles which will display ads embedded in the page and trigger annoying pop-ups. However, it's nice to scan headlines in peace, even if you lose the pictures through the feed.

Also, neither Google nor Bloglines displays user comments in the feed, which can be positive and negative. Sometimes I want to hear what other people think, and sometimes I don't.
