Continued testing of Google Reader Replacements

So I still want Google Reader back, and honestly mostly I have switched back to it along with Reeder on my iPad, but instead of staring items I am sending them to pinboard. And if I had to chose one of the other choices as of right now it would have to be newsblur, though I think it is slow and not nearly as efficient as Reader was.

And as for TheOldReader I can’t really say as I have only moved up to 4830 after what 5 days, so I figure my feeds will import in a couple of weeks and I can give it a go.

Netvibes interface is just not great for an iPad, which is where I mostly read feeds. Maybe with a dedicated app it would be better.

And Feedly I just don’t like the look of it, if they would also have a more reader like view maybe I could go for it. I do find it interesting that they say their user base grew by half a million in one day as of the announcement as that is a huge amount more than the 120,000 who have signed the petition to not kill Google Reader.

Lets hop that Diggs app is good.

Or if Reeder updates feeds itself, and syncs via iCloud as I do have Mac, iPad and iPhone versions. Will not be great for at work as I won’t have an app there, but I could always just use my ipad.
