Feedly defaults to a “Today” page, which is pretty handy: I’m using the Chrome version, which has all the bells and whistles. Feedly isn’t technically a web-based app, but it integrates with Chrome and Firefox and has apps for iOS, Android, and Kindle. I almost regret starting with Feedly, because it’s honestly such a good tool that I’m not sure I want to try much else.
#Rssowl 64 bit update#
If the situation changes, I'll update this section of the post. Unfortunately, Google seems to have made good on their promise – as of July 15, 2013, Google Reader is no longer available for export through Google Takeout. Honorable mention to Digg Reader, which seems to have already fixed some of the shortcomings in my review. I think the best balance in that regard was AOL Reader – it's familiar but fully functional. I decided to declare two winners, because some people wanted something simple and familiar to ease the transition. If you're looking for a full-featured, next-generation reader, Feedly is a great place to start. This post ended up being anti-climactic, because the first reader I used ended up being my favorite. See the list below for quick-links to finished reviews. I’ll be writing the post as I go, updating it every Thursday, so that I can get alternatives into your hands as I test them. So, I’m going to try a new RSS reader each week and write about my experiences here. Like many people, I still use RSS to get information from trusted sources, and I’m looking for alternatives.
As you probably know, Google Reader will be shutting down on July 1st. This post is a bit of an experiment, but I’ll get to that in a minute.
