I logged in with my google acount and it seamlessly added all my feeds from google reader. The interface is somewhat different, but the UI is somewhat flexible.<br /><br />Reading their blog, they say they're writing a new backend, and when Google Reader goes offline, feedly will make the switch and the user won't notice anything at all.<br /><br />So I'm using feedly exclusively now, and I'll also be experimenting with other RSS aggregators.Kirk Loweryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13778840949953862691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5759844.post-17616042907856767822013-03-14T09:31:30.626-04:002013-03-14T09:31:30.626-04:00Uggghhh...

Now the only one to close up shop will be me, when I choose. It's not perfect - but not 'magazine' either and keeps all my folders\categories etc. A bit of an adjustment, but not a bad one.Drewehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12506752511439509824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5759844.post-49269578969693343422013-03-14T06:42:10.085-04:002013-03-14T06:42:10.085-04:00I blogged on this last night.

While the default settings are magazine-like, it is possible to set the view to "Titles" and then it is much more efficient and not that different from Google Reader. I've spent a few hours today trying several alternatives and I think Feedly might be the one I settle on.Rob J Hyndmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14639396933879794459noreply@blogger.com
