Google Reader

Using any new social media can be stressful for anyone.  Change is always very difficult for me, with no exception Google reader was one of them that gave me anxiety trying to figure out.  Even though this was a stressful process it is good to broaden my horizons and try new social media sites.  Google reader offers many benefits to any person.  By this I mean that any person could find at least one thing to help them out with a project or to acquire information which could help.  For me personally, I subscribed to certain sites that will help me out with my majors.  I am a political science and business major; so knowing what is going on in the world is essential.  I subscribed to Aljazeera which is a news paper published in the middle east.  Also, I am interested in foreign policy so I also subscribed to the council on foreign policy.  These may not intrigue anyone else, but it is a good helping tool for my studies.  Google reader is almost like the flip board app but I feel like the reader gives you a more well rounded amount of stories and information.  I still prefer using my Iphone apps to find out news but while on a computer Google reader seems to be a helpful tool.  It took a little while to understand how to navigate on this site but once I figured it out it was not too difficult.  This site will help when I have to research for my foreign policy projects and help keep me updated on what is going on in the world.
