Today I read in my Google Reader that Google Reader is going away. I use Reader to scan hundreds of articles each day, so I’m pretty annoyed with Google at the moment. It’s my primary source for blog material and in its absence I may be forced to wax at length about my daily commute.
“You could use Twitter.”
Okay, who said that? Because you don’t want to fuck with me right now. Twitter has its uses, but I prefer to get my web content in complete paragraphs. Twitter is fine for a quick scan of the latest, but it’s not a convenient way to keep up with a multitude of websites.
Somebody hold me.
I know. What the fuck?
I’m pretty disappointed to hear that.
I’m giving Feedly a try now – they run on Google Reader, but have apparently been working on an alternative for some time (they saw the writing on the wall a long time ago).
The iPad app is gorgeous – I’m going to try the Chrome extension as well.
