Thank you Aning and everyone for the suggestions and experiences. Now that I have moved completely back to Ubuntu, I will be posting more of the blogging experiences with it further.

I too was hooked to Netvibes, then switched to Google Reader.
I used to be an die hard Netvibes fan earlier, recommending it to all people whom I talked to :D

Listikal,

Internet Explorer??? Since i opened FF for the first time, i never voluntarily opened IE. Unfortunatly, enterprises still feel a bit more secure with a Microsoft product and so i am obliged to use IE at work :)

For linux especially ubuntu (i.e Gnome Desktop) I have found Drivel and BlogTK especially useful.

Gili, I am addicted to NetVibes :). There is no going back to Google Reader - unless - they support 'RSS Item Windows' as Netvibes does.

Why don't you use Google Reader? It can handle 500 feeds quite gracefully :)
Sorry for not being able to comment on Linux, but i am a Windows fanatic :)
