A little while ago I posted a list of the fifteen blogs I'd read the most in the previous month. I revisited my Google Reader stats this week and found out a couple of interesting things. First of all the list had changed quite dramatically:-
1) Cheezhead
3) JPIE
5) Valleywag
6) Guru
7) Life Hacker
9) Adventures in Digital Marketing
10) Jim Stroud
Secondly I realised that the way I read blogs has also changed dramatically. The reason behind this change isn't just because certain blogs are updating more (although that does make a difference) it's because I don't use Google Reader as my only main tool to read blogs anymore.
I also use Twitter and Friendfeed
A couple of examples to show how this works. PDA and Techcrunch were two blogs I used to read a lot via Google Reader and featured quite highly in my list, I still read them as much but now access them in different ways. I link through to PDA via Jemima Kiss updates on Twitter and I read Techcrunch via Michael Arrington's RSS feed into Friendfeed.
Just shows you how quickly things can change!
I won't be publishing a list like this again as I suspect the way I consume blogs will change yet again.......particularly if my new iPhone actually arrives!
