Bye Bye Google Reader

As most Bloggers know, Google Reader is being killed off and won't be around after July 1. Sniff. I LIKED Google Reader for it's clean utilitarian interface and in the search for a new RSS feeder, I tried several different ones and ended up using
feedly.com

Unlike Google Reader, Feedly is slick and modern. After using it for a while I have come to love it.♥♥♥ I love the magazine layout of the feeds and the ease of importing my subscriptions -- oo la la! Since I haven't really converted to Google+ I was unsure if the blogs I follow would still be there after July 1, so I made sure to still have a subscription as a non-follower to those blogs.

If you haven't made a decision on what reader to use, I highly recommend Feedly.

  1. Dumb question, what exactly is Google Reader? Do I have it on my blog? Is it my Followers thingy? Help!!

  2. I've decided I prefer Feedly as well. Still working my way through all the 'bells and whistles' but the true scale tipper was the ease of navigation on my smart phone. It works just the same as on the computer *woo hoo* This old dog only has to learn one new trick!

  3. I switched to Bloglovin. I thought for sure I had seen your blog on it, but for some reason, it disappeared! I have added it back.
