Feed Reader
Google reader and the new reader has differences. And some ways they are like, but I am going to tell you witch one I like best. I love google reader. I like it better then the new reader because it's much easier to get to with google. Also it is better to use because it has better handling and it's policy is much better. Plus it's safe to use against hackers. Thee new reader is not as easy to use then google reader, it has good detail but it's hard to remember a new password then to remember a google password, something that your on constantly. This is my paragraph about the new reader and google reader.
