I've been using Bloglines for several months now to keep up with the sites I read. It saves me loads of time since it notifies me when I site I care about has been updated. And with a growing list of sites to keep track of, that can take up a lot of time. To get an idea of what I'm talking about, you can view the sites I read here.

The other useful thing I've found is that I can read the new articles from Bloglines itself, instead of seeing something new and clicking on the site. I've gotten used to doing it that way.

The problem comes in when I go to sites like My Boring Ass Life where the feed only contains the first sentence or three of the article. Then I have to spend about twice as much time to read it. Honestly, it makes me less likely to read it.

The only reason I've come up with for them to set it up that way, is that I'm forced to look at the ads on their page to read the article. But honestly, I tend to change the channel during commercials so this really isn't going to get my attention.
