Google Reader Blows

92 words.

What is up with Google Reader?? Half the time I click on anything the entire browser freezes up for minutes on end. I can only assume it’s doing some kind of asynchronous request that would probably take a fraction of a second on a non-sucky network connection. Unfortunately, at work, where I’m stuck with Internet Explorer 6 and one of the crappiest networks imaginable, it blows. I was trying to use it for a handful of feeds, but I’ve given up on it and gone back to a synchronized folder in FeedDemon.

This page is a static archival copy of what was originally a WordPress post. It was converted from HTML to Markdown format before being built by Hugo. There may be formatting problems that I haven't addressed yet. There may be problems with missing or mangled images that I haven't fixed yet. There may have been comments on the original post, which I have archived, but I haven't quite worked out how to show them on the new site.

Sorry, new comments are disabled on older posts. This helps reduce spam. Active commenting almost always occurs within a day or two of new posts.
