Google Reader offers an easy way to read titles + graphical abstracts of all the publications in one go. Follow these steps:

1. Get a google account
2. Login into Google Reader
3. Go to your favorite journal's page and look for a link called "RSS FEED". Copy that link location.
4. In Google Reader click on "Subscribe" and paste the link you copied above.
5. Now you are subscribe to that journal's updates: If you do not click on an article as you scroll down the titles, the title will disappear. You can mark an abstract as "unread" if you want to keep it in your list.
