Google Taking Down Google Reader

Feedly RSS Feeder

When I got the message on my screen about Google taking down Google Reader for good after July 1st, I went into shock mode. What am I going to use to read my news feeds from all my favorite sites?! Reading these news feeds on Google Reader + the Reeder app have been such a big part of my daily routine for years. I chose not to believe the news for weeks until I finally accepted there Google Reader will be gone for good. On the positive side, Google allows you to export your subscriptions {go to Reader settings > Import/Export tab and then click on the “download your data through takeout”.} so that you can import the subscription data to whatever service you decide to use.

After reading reviews on several RSS feed apps/websites, I decided to migrate to Feedly and have been really happy about the results so far. All I did was log in with my Google Reader account and it automatically loaded all my feeds. The interface is clean, super easy to use, and there are several different layouts you can choose to read your feeds. Plus I was able to organize all the news feeds based on categories such as lifestyle, design, weddings, etc. So far, so good.

I also decided to drop the Reeder app which I use on my iPad to read my news feeds because it no longer syncs to Evernote. The developer has not done anything to solve this issue which a lot of people are complaining about.

Feedly syncs with most browsers, iOS and android. You can’t be that! After all, I feel great about the new change.

Happy reading + wishing you all a very Happy Easter weekend!
