Google Reader alternatives

Hi all.

Some of you may know that Google is shutting down its Reader service on July 1st. As a result, you may have to find an alternative to keep up with your favorite blogs. I thought I would offer you some alternatives that I now use so you can continue to read along with me and your other bloggers!

First, on the iPad, I enjoy Flipboard. It is a lovely app which reminds of a magazine. I follow all of my mini blogs there as well as many other sites, including Etsy blog, LinkedIn, CNN, NPR books, and many other home decor and wedding blogs.

Today, I also synced my blog reading list to another app called feedly. While I haven't tried it out on the iPad yet, I do like it on my laptop. I highly recommend, after syncing your blogs to it (click on the link to see how), to click on the "Latest" link on their page to see your favorite blogs in order from newest to oldest. It reminds me of the Google Reader layout just a bit.

There are other options as well if you want to try them out. Type in "google reader alternatives" in your favorite search engine to learn about some others.

I hope this is helpful to you and I hope you will continue to join me on this blog!

Cheers,
Linda
