On Alternatives to Google Reader

If you read my blog you know I am completely distraught by apple getting rid of Google Reader, and have been busy trying out alternatives, but am still unhappy with any of them, and have just been using Google Reader while I can, and especially REEDER for the Mac, iPhone and iPad. Hopefully it will either get a way to sync via icloud or use a backend that will let it continue to work as it currently does.

Of the others Newsblur is pretty Reader like with some cool new features and does work well on the iPad.

I am not liking netvibes as well as you have to do too much with drop down menus.

And I still can’t say with TheOldReader as I am now 2023 in line to import my RSS feeds! Ha! At this rate Google Reader will be down by the time I get to try it out!

And I just don’t like Feedly. I want a list, not pictures and a magazine format. Too much like Flipboard for my taste. I want more control and more speed in my reeder.

I really hope DIggs new Reader is as good and fast as Reader.
