[FRIAM] Fwd: Go Read: Open-Source Google Reader Clone - Matt Jibson's Blog

2013-06-28 Thread Owen Densmore
So google reader is going away Monday.  When announced a while back,
several blogs posted alternatives, mainly Feedly but several others, one
even a review each week.  If you do use reader, go immediately to the
export function and save your feeds file!

This is quite a tribute to JS's maturity!  The article discusses use of
Angular and the pain that data formats pose, and apparently it is deployed
on google's app-engine.  Ironic!  I had assumed AE had died.  But great
that a clever programmer just stuffed reader back onto google's cloud!

Feedly is doing an excellent job of fulfilling all my Reader-related
needs. Strongly recommended.
