Lots of things can be done easily these days. G-Lock Software seems to focus on making your life a bit easier when it comes to surfing the Internet. Fast Blog Finder is one of their toys that lets you organize your favorite blogs.

If you're already familiar with G-Lock products, than you know how the installation process goes down. If not, don't worry, there's nothing you can't handle. Like other software from this family, the installation package is not exactly small, at least for slower Internet connections. Fast Blog Finder's kit is over 8 Mb and this is one of the smallest programs from G-Lock. Installing it doesn't require adding additional toolbars or anything, but when it's done, the product will need to be activated. Just submit your email address and you'll receive an activation code for the free version.

Fast Blog Finder's sleek interface is designed in such a way that any experience level user may easily access it and get started on managing his blogs. The main window is divided in a way that won't require endless menus navigation. There are three main parts of the window that you'll mostly use. In one part you can create separate blog lists and see their contents in the next area. The final part of the window is a built-in browser. It can be used to access not just blogs but other web pages as well. It all looks and feels easier than it sounds.

If you have a populated blog list, you can just click an entry and the blog will load automatically in the interface's browser. You can access multiple blogs at the same time and these will load on different tabs. If the list is too long, there's a search function to help you out. Clicking on certain links in the mini-browser will open up the target page in Internet Explorer. This generally happens if that page is on a different web site. This is not exactly a bad thing. The mini browser isn't that comfortable. Even if you resize the areas of the interface, it still doesn't beat having a web page on your whole screen, in its very own window.

You can also find some advanced features, like detecting a blog type or ranking, you can check your comments on a certain or all blogs, in short, you can do a lot. The drawback here is that some advanced features aren't available in the free version.

Pros

You can create lots of lists with lots of blogs and manipulate them very easily. The interface is designed so that any user, novice or advanced, can interact with it and get started in no time.

Cons

When you start using this program, you might have to click a bit more than usually in order to fully get the hang of how the interface works. You may have to deal with messages popping out, telling you that you've done something wrong. Fast Blog Finder lets you round up as many blogs as you want, manage and interact with them, all from one interface.
