Google reader

Tweet

I just installed google reader to a "google" account. I want to read my regular blogs in one place. I didn't attach it to my google homepage, Just the google reader. If I use google as my homepage will my computer run slow in general.. Again, I dont' have it loaded on my "homepage" just a Google READER acct. but it google happens to be my homepage do these things I have added to the google reader generally slow me down doing other things?
