I'm stilltrying to decide about what to use to replace Google Reader. Right now, I keep going back and forth between Feedly and Pulse. I've eliminated Bloglovin' from the contest. It looks a lot like Google Reader, but I was thinking, if it's time for a change, why stay the same? Though, I've seen a few of the blogs I follow decide on Bloglovin'... Both Feedly and Pulse have mobile apps... I suppose I could just try each out and then decide after a couple days of playing with it. What do you think? Feedly or Pulse?
Interested to see what you go with. I'm thinking I'll probably go with bloglovin'. I keep hearing great things about Feedly but I'd rather something browser based, since I tend to work on a bunch of different computers and can't d/l the program to all of them.
Hmm... I actually didn't think of a browser based program versus non-browser. I'd only have to download it to two computers and the mobile app, so not that much... I've been hearing good things about Feedly too.
Funny because I like bloglovin' BECAUSE it looks alot like Google Reader. I've looked as several and don't want to have to download anything. Another reason I lke bloglovin' is that I can have a follow me on bloglovin' button on the blog...I think that it pretty cool. I like the Google Reader app on my phone but I just look at bloglovin' in the browser on my phone instead. Can't wait to hear what you decide on!
I've never used Google Reader or any such services. Barely even understand what it's all about. This, despite being a blogger for some near 8 years. I follow some blogs regularly, but never bothered investigated what reader was. Now, seeing how upset people have been about Google Reader, I guess I missed out. What is/was the point before I see what everyone switches to? Maybe then, if I can figure out how to do it, I'll finally jump on board.
I liked Reader because it collected all the blogs, news sites, whatever, I followed all in one place. It was mostly a convenience. Using Google Reader was easy too if you already had Gmail or Blogger accounts. I think people are mostly upset because of the shock. Really though, there are lots of of other options for people who use RSS feeds.

ReplyDeleteI found out that Feedly actually has a display option that makes it look like Google Reader. I really like the Feedly app too.
