Alternative to G Reader

[spursncowboys]

What's a good one? I love Google Reader and was looking for one simple like it. Anybody using one they like?

Flipboard ftw!

Prior to Flipboard, I used Pulse. Liked it too.

Looks just like the old Google Reader. I just wish they had apps, I do not like the magazine style apps like Flipboard.

Feedly

Flipboard looks great, but is not convenient at all

Flipboard is not ideal if you subscribe to many feeds imo

I'm pulling 16 feeds across 3 pages....doesn't seem to be much of a problem.

I tried it, it looks nice but I prefer a different setup - i prefer a more basic layout like the Google Reader. I don't really care for Feedly either but it is nice too and has the kind of cross platform syncing my google reader clients do. I will probably end up clinging to what I have and just hope someone comes out with a nice API replacement.

I thought this is a pretty interesting article on this subject.

How long does it take to import my subscriptions? It's been like 4 hours still hasn't imported them.

I was using feedly but for whatever reason it won't play any podcast shows from smodcast.. I need my Tell 'em Steve-Dave.

Sorry about that.

Feedly

That's what I got for my phone and tablet but they don't have a program. It's pretty bad ass though.

[sinok]

They do, at least for firefox.

They have a Chrome and FF extension, easy to install.

They may still be getting hammered, I haven't tried it but like the layout.

[leemajors]

Tried Feedly again this morning, I think I will stick with it for now - using full article layout with Chess theme. Syncing works perfectly.

Yeah i meant an offline program

[lefty]

Ok so I got rid of Taptu and Im now using Feedly

On both my Android phone and Chrome

Not bad at all

I like it because it actually streams smodcast shows unlike feedly.. The wait for the import is gonna be a pain in the ass.. Just saw this:

There are 29360 users in the import queue ahead of you.

Guess i'll just manually import my subscriptions

I like Feedly extension for CHrome

1 thing I like is that when you are browsing, let's say Spurstalk, and click on the little transparent arrow on the bottom right of the screen, it gives you the website in a magazine-like layout
