Google Reader, my beloved tool for keeping up with favorite blogs, is going the way of the travelers’ check (or the dodo, as the more traditional saying goes). On July 1st, Google Reader will shut down for good.
My stats tell us that many of you choose to follow Alex in Wanderland’s RSS feed via Google Reader — more than 250 of you, in fact. Let’s wipe our tears and talk options.
There are alternatives to Google Reader that you can try out. Personally, I’ve switched to Feedly and I’m loving it. It’s a much more beautifully designed interface and I love the iPhone app.
However, if you want to ensure that you never miss a post from Alex in Wanderland, — and really, you never know when I’m going to post an urgent photo of mango sticky rice — may I suggest that you sign-up for my email updates? This free service will deliver new posts 3-4 times a week, and ensures that you never miss a misadventure.
Anyone else mega bummed about the impending death of Google Reader? Let’s commiserate in the comments, geek-style.
