Hey Everyone,

I have been using Google Reader for awhile now to find all sorts of inspiring art.

Most websites like Deviant Art, Blogger, & many forums have RSS feeds that you can plug into Google reader. Then anytime that site gets updated with art it gets put into your list.

You can then take individual posts from the list and tag them, star them, or share them in your own RSS feed.

The really neat thing is that you can comment on or "like" posts and anytime you do that all other Google reader users can see your name on the post.

I have found lots of other users that share similar art interests to me this way and I just add their favorites to my RSS feed list and every time they find something cool I get to see it.

I have just under 1,000 posts shared on my favorite feed you can check it out here: http://www.google.com/reader/shared/11243652244701079388

If you want to add me to Google reader just sign in to Google Reader with your gmail account, copy and paste that url, and paste it into the popup that appears when you hit the "Add Subscription" button.

Maybe everyone already knew about this but I thought I would share just in case. Hadn't seen anyone talking about it and I have found so many inspiring artists this way.
