Why use readers for RSS feeds?

As a marketer it is crucial to stay on top of the current news in many different areas both for yourself/company and for clients. RSS feeds have made it really easy to stay on top of virtually every blog and news reporting website. However subscribing to RSS feeds via your email isn’t that great of an option because it can bog down your emails and doesn’t make browsing quick. To overcome this problem and to really experience the benefits of RSS you need to have a RSS reader. What a reader does is aggregate all of your different feeds into one website where you can actually see the feed’s content. This way you don’t have to open a bunch of emails to see all of your RSS feeds and can browse through what you want to read and what you want to skip.
