I logged into Google reader and added some RSS feeds to follow. This was surprisingly easy I even put my feeds into folders!
In terms of using readers in a library setting, I think they have great potential as a current awareness tool. However they rely on library users following your blog site and in my experience this just doesn't happen. I have set up readers in the past and despite masses of promotion they just don't attract an audience. Most of my library users when asked say they would prefer an email.
In addition to the Google account created for the purposes of 12 Things I also have a personal account so I will definitely be making better use of the feed reader on that account too!!
