I myself have logged on to Reader less frequently because keeping up with more than 150 feeds from dozens of sites became overwhelming.
More recently, though, Twitter and Facebook have performed a similar role in discovering content. Content comes to you, through readers such as Google Reader. RSS feeds - for really simple syndication - used to be a popular way to keep track of multiple websites without having to visit each and every one. Google says usage has declined since Reader made its debut in 2005. Reader’s demise comes as little surprise. And many of those rival services have made it easy to accept those feeds, especially after Google said in March that it would retire Reader. Google has made it easy to move your list of sites you follow, known as feeds, to another service. I have spent a lot of time curating Reader, so I’m not keen on seeing it die.įortunately, there’s an afterlife. Although many of these items relate to work, I have added a few fun topics, too, including news on Antarctica and a daily dose of passive aggressive notes that people send each other. With Reader, I’ve been able to see at a glance all the updates from various news services, blogs and company websites I follow. – On July 1, we say goodbye to Google Reader, a handy tool for bringing headlines and articles from your favouritewebsites into a single place.
