But perhaps I can learn to.Įxport your Google Reader data now, before July 1. Denial’s gotten me this far, but it’s time to move on. Those who relied on Google Reader’s Web interface will similarly find themselves stuck up the news creek without a reader. A million newsreaders will cry out, no longer able to sync their feeds across multiple devices. So when people ask me what my plan is for RSS after Google, my answer is simple: denial, denial, denial. And now Google’s ruining everything by killing a beloved (though likely unprofitable) service. All three apps stay in sync via Google Reader’s API, and they’ve worked together in beautiful harmony for years. I love RSS I’ve used NetNewsWire since its launch, and I use Reeder for iPad and iPhone.
So ever since Google’s heartbreaking announcement that it was closing down Google Reader-and the newsfeed syncing APIs that went along with-folks have asked me what my news reading plan is post Reader’s demise. Because I write about technology, people tend to ask me for tech advice.
