Adieu, Google Reader

As many of you have already heard by now, Google Reader will be retiring at the end of this month. I’ll be sad to see it go: Checking it for new RSS items while enjoying a cup of coffee has been my daily ritual for the past 5+ years.

Have you been using Google Reader to follow Solo Lisa and other blogs all this time? Make sure you export your RSS feeds before July 1 when they’ll be gone, gone, gone! And if you’re still looking for an alternative RSS reader, might I suggest Bloglovin’ or Feedly?

  1. I am sooo sad and in denial. I'm switching to Feedly but nothing beats GR. :( It's been my daily morning routine since 2005.

    1. I'm in mourning too. I exported all my feeds to Bloglovin' but I'm using Google Reader until the bitter end.

  2. I agree, I really liked Google reader and it's a pain to have to go to another site to visit your fav blogs .. but all good things come to an end as they say.

  4. I was mourning it until I discovered Feedly. Then I discovered it was all the things I loved about Google Reader but wrapped up in a prettier package!

    1. Interesting! Feedly's also great because it's cross-platform.
