Oh nos! Google announced on March 13, 2013, that Google Reader would be shut down on July 1, 2013. When Bloglines shut down (and then was resurrected in a slightly different form in 2010), Google Reader was the last truly functional web-based feed reader left. I use it daily, as I’m sure others do. Not enough of us, it seems, for Google.
It seems I need to find another decent client for my RSS feeds. I may be in the minority, but I find a feed reader the best way to keep up.
