Easily Follow Blogs with iReader

iReader is a great way to read RSS updates on your Mac. What I love about this is that you can sync it with Google Reader, therefore you can get all your blogger/GFC subscriptions as well as other websites! There's a management system so you can organise your subscriptions into folders, you can sync with iCloud, favourite articles, customise keyboard shortcuts for faster reading. Another fab thing is it supports offline reading and it's very easily laid out. If you follow blogs via RSS Feed, this App may be your new best friend.

The left had column shows what you are subscribed to, when you click on one, the posts update in the middle column, you can flick through or use the search bar and when you select one the post appears in the last column so you can read it. You can pin certain posts/articles and then select to only show those pinned. View all unread posts makes it easy to see what you missed and you can easily share posts you enjoyed from the services menu. Available to download from the App Store.

How do you follow blogs? Have you tried this?

Easily Resize your Blog Images with ResizeIt

ResizeIt allows you to easily change the size of multiple images and convert to a different format. This quick and easy tool is perfect for bloggers, think of the amount of photos you edit on a weekly basis.

Launch the App, pick your photos and simply choose your resize options. You can use it with your Macs Autometer to automatically resize images, instructions for this is in the manual of the App. Some people have complained about the new update, but I haven't noticed a difference. I think it's something to try anyways, if you like to have your images a certain size but hate spending time editing each one. I'd recommend giving it a go. ResizeIt is available for Macs on the App Store.

Useful Apps & Websites

Warning: Text Heavy!

I tried, tested and researched a few different app's and websites aimed at bloggers and social network users.

When I'm online (more so my laptop than my mac) I like to use 2 browsers, one for my personal facebook, mail, internet use, the other for blogging, twitter, blog, mail, lookbook etc. That way I can have all I need bookmarked, automatically logging in...so on. Most of us that blog use a range of sites, sometimes it can get messy and confusing so I've recently started organising it a little more, using different app's, tools and websites. So here we are...
