13 Days 13 Hours 30 Mins 37 Seconds | Google Reader Dies
For those of us that consume website updates using RSS and a reader client, there is only a short space of time before Google rips out the most useful product they offer (apart from search). I did a quick trawl of alternatives, and options you can consider are:
- https://feedbin.me ($24 pa)
- http://www.feedly.com (free)
- Digg: Announcing Digg Reader. (but not actually launched yet)
- https://www.taptu.com (maybe free, the website is annoying so I can't find any costs)
- https://www.pulse.me (free)
- http://flipboard.com (free)
- Other ideas here: http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-19512_7-57574201-233/google-reader-is-dying-but-we-have-five-worthy-alternatives/
- http://feedwrangler.net/welcome.html ($19 pa)
- http://www.newsblur.com (free, and recommended by Tom Riesack in Germany ;-))
Apps
- http://readkitapp.com/ (for Mac only, recommended by Stephane)
- http://reederapp.com (for Mac, iPad, iPhone, recommended by The OTC Space)
End of June is the cut-off, so either choose an alternative, or at least download all your feeds in an OPML file so you can port later.
