Ask HN: How many of you/us use Google Reader on a daily basis?

I'm just curious, as it is still my #1 consumption app in spite of FB, Twitter, G+, etc.

I have over 80 publications and read over 800 items a day.

Am I the only one?

I think many of us are actually still addicted to RSS readers although it may not always be Google Reader (I still have many feeds stuck in MyYahoo! because I started with them when it was shiny and new). Granted that may be a small group of users, but it's certainly the power users. By the way this doesn't just include techies but also includes journalists and other news junkies.

Maybe you could change this into a poll? I use Google Reader and check it often, but I'm very selective of what I subscribe to, so there's not usually a lot of updates to catch up on.

I wanted to do a poll. I didn't see how to do that when I posted. Can you give a quick howto? Sorry for being a newb.

Karma > 200 is required.

As I do not have karma >200, would you mind creating the poll?

If not, I understand, but I will upvote.

I use it every day, but i also use this greasemonkey script to make it a bit easier on the eyes.
