The Demise of Google reader

Francine - Mar 0, 2013 Just had to let you know I probably wouldn’t have seen this post had it not been in my Google Reder.

The Demise of Google reader

Google Reader was a great tool because it made gathering and sharing content from specific sources intuitive and easy. It provided us with one place from which to do most things. Today Google have announced that they are pulling the plug on Google reader. In my eyes Google reader had become obsolete four years ago. That’s when I moved to services like Feedly, zite and others. Each of these services was more interesting because it took our feeds but used algorithms to make relevant content discovery faster and more intuitive.
