My right hand has less work now

GMail has spoiled my mouse usage to a great extend. The recently introduced Google Reader was also having keyboard shortcuts. So I thought of changing to Google Reader from Bloglines. So I logged into Bloglines and I was about to export my subscription list as a OPML file but to my surprise I saw a bunch of hotkeys on its footer. Viola! Bloglines too have keyboard shortcuts and I dropped the idea of switching.You could see them in the footer. Here is the list

• j - next article
• k - previous article
• s - next sub
• f - next folder
• A - read all
• r - refresh left pane

I wonder how things change suddenly when there is a competition. As I always used to say it’s the users who are going to get benefited when there is a competition. Now I just can’t wait to see Bloglines redesign its interface and Google Reader introducing more cool features. So because of Keyboard shortcuts Bloglines is still my feed reader.
