How do I read this?

A few of you have commented to me that you like the blog, but want to know whether you can receive updates when I add a new post. Well, the answer isn't all that simple, but I'll try to answer it anyway ...

I like to use something called Google Reader to aggregate all of the blogs that I read. All you need is a free Google account (you already have one if you have a gmail address). You can check it out at http://reader.google.com/. This is really handy because you can open your Google Reader page daily to read all of your favorite blogger's updates in one place. Once you've set up your Google Reader page, just click the orange square with white radio waves on any page that you'd like to subscribe to.

There are also client apps, and other web-based readers to choose from: List of feed aggregators - Wikipedia
