Bloglines Tutorial
I think most of the people that would be reading this already use an aggregator of some sort, but I'll put up a quick mention of it anyway (who knows, you may find the tutorial a useful place to which to point people). Also, some of the repeated web hits in my StatCounter reports lead me to believe that some people still do manually check sites. A travesty, especially considering how infrequently many of them update (including this one usually).
If you find yourself manually checking multiple blogs, news sites, etc throughout the day, you're living like a second class citizen. There are fancy tools that will do it for you. Please, for the love of god, read this tutorial if you are one of those people. It will change the way you use the web and cause you to resent and possibly begin ignoring sites that don't have feeds. Bloglines is not the only aggregator out there, by the way, but it's my favorite and probably the easiest to get started with.

Fantastic information. I like reading blogs, but wasn't fanatical about learning more about them. But this is going to be one heck of a time saver, thanks!
I would jokingly end with a comment something like "you're not as dumb as you look" or something just as tremendously witty, but I fear you may not remember me.

Me, not remember the Otto-man? Surely you jest.
I'm glad the info helped someone at least. Be sure to share the tutorial with anyone you know still suffering the pain of manually checking things.
