Rather than create a video tutorial on how to do this, I found this great little video on YouTube that explains how to organize your feeds using Google Reader.

I personally have a folder for our class where I’ve added everyone’s blog subscriptions, so I can easily focus on just the new contributions from our class. If you are a Google Reader user, give folders a try!

I personally subscribe to each student’s blog in my Google Reader account so that I don’t need to manually visit each blog to view the latest contributions. You should subscribe to my blog as well as the blogs of all the other students in our course.

If you’ve never heard of Google Reader before, watch this brief video that explains Google Reader in Plain English.
