I've been using Google Reader for about three weeks now.  It's the first
RSS aggregator/viewer I've found that seems intuitive and smooth enough
to actually be useful.  Every other program I've tried has kludgey
interactions that annoyed me.  I *like* Google Reader.

The only think I'm not liking is that I can't easily view the protected
entries (login required) on my friend's LiveJournal blogs without
upgrading to a paid LiveJournal account.
