It's BlogRolling's fault: Apologies to all the folks who think I'm ignoring their blogs

When I finally got my blogroll set up, with mucho help from Sheyna Galyan, I thought I had it made in the shade: Whenever someone updated their blog, BlogRolling would put a little "updated" tag next to their link, so, rather than cycling through my entire list, I'd just visit a blog when the "updated" tag appeared. It finally dawned on me only a few weeks ago that there seemed to be an awful lot of bloggers on my blogroll who just weren't writing very frequently. So I began doing random checks. I was none too happy to learn that I'd missed dozens of posts because my "updated" tags weren't being updated. Sorry, folks! I didn't mean to be antisocial. I'll try to drop in more often.

The "updated" tags only change when you republish your blog (at least on mine). A better idea is to do what I just did this week and have an RSS feed-reader (or whatever it's called). It shows me all the new posts on my blogroll with the click of a button.

Ezzie, not even republishing my entire blog does the job. How do I obtain and/or set up an RSS feed-reader (or whatever it's called)?

I use Mozilla, and it was suggested to me to get Sage, available on the Mozilla add-ons site. You then add the feeds you want (by going to each site and adding it), and whenever you want to see who's posted, you just click a button! It's made blogging (and roundups) much easier.
