Yup..its correct…Google Reader is no more!
Feedly
The ease with which it can synch with GR was the most attractive.That besides, it brings in a lot more.
Flipboard
Google decided to shut down its RSS reader leaving many users wondering how to subscribe to their favourite RSS feeds( btw GR wasn’t the most aesthetically designed product from California,but its still did its job).
That said, if you are looking for alternatives there are quite a few replacements. Some of them are available across devices and OS.
Feedly
The ease with which it can synch with GR was the most attractive.That besides, it brings in a lot more.
—The featured sites are quite a lot, across the globe and covers from various categories like Business, Tech, News, Cooking.
–More search friendly.
–Shareability of news across your social platforms
–Quite easiliy available as pug ins for desktops, Android and even iOS.
Pulse
–More touch friendly.
–Swipe responses are surprisingly smooth with ability to swipe them up and down with ease.
–The home screen customisability was the best I loved on this reader.
–Ofcourse, feeds from your friends on facebook can also be read.
Google Currents
May not have hogged the limelight all these days due to GR, but i guess with the shutting down GC could start seeing some push in popularity.
However, similar to Flipboard, the UI has a magazine style layout making it look very sleek.
Just like GR, it allows for RSS enabled site subscription and a breaking news feature that pulls out news from the selected categories.
Very popular among the android and iOS users-they dont have a desktop version.
Again, a magazine layout lets you flip across like a magazine with ease.
Customising through several categories like News, Technology, Business and even favourite sites like Economist, Salon and Guardian possible.
However, its key strength is in its magazine layout with enormous content, allowing it for a precise customisability.
Btw..all the above mentioned are free to download.
