NEW Feature!  Reading List in Google Chrome

(Depending on your account... you may/may not have this feature yet)

Have you ever been reading a blog post or an article, or have you been conducting research on a project, paper, or assignment recently?  Well, you're in luck!  This awesome new feature to your Google Chrome browser will assist you in keeping track of all your current content that you are reading.  Once this feature is enabled by your domain, or added to your Chrome account, you can easily follow these steps to save your current readings:

When you find an article, or something you would like to save in your reading list, click on the star in the Omnibox (URL bar)... as if you were saving a bookmark.

Now instead of just having the option to save as a bookmark, you can save directly to your reading list.  This is great, because I have hundreds of bookmarks, and many times I just want to save an article/blog post for just a little bit so I can go back, and finish reading it.  

Click on --> Add to Reading List.  Once this step is completed, move your curser over to your reading list button (below your chrome account and chrome settings) and click on it.  This is where you can see all your current reading list saves.  Click on the reading to finish it, or click on the "x" to delete it from your reading list.  

Enjoy!
