July 2, 2013 at 11:57Google Reader is closed
“Comrade Bender is dead” © “Twelve Chairs”, Ilf and Petrov
Although there were already messages on many news sources, “Google Reader has closed, how will we continue to live?” (if you look in the news , you can see the news for June 30), but the real closure took place on July 2, 2013 at 11:30 Moscow time (at 0:30 Pacific time). First, local versions (on google.ru) were closed, then the option common to all. But there were jokes already: “Nothing closes, Google returned interest in RSS, Reader remains to live.” Sorry, but we were wrong. Google itself offers alternatives . As far as I understand, an rss reader was not implemented in Google Plus.
The message said: “Google Reader has been disabled. We want to thank everyone who stayed with us until the end. We understand that not all of you will agree with the decision, but we think that you will like the alternative no less than Reader.
Sincerely, The Google reader team

A bunch of alternatives such as Feedly and Digg Reader, without further ado, simply made the “Import from Google Reader” button on the main page, clearly showing their ancestor and mastermind (and a huge closed pool with a live niche, from which it would be nice to grab a piece of it). Someone is raising ready-made open source web reader solutions. Someone, I am sure, began to write a reader for themselves. There is nothing particularly complicated in the implementation of the reader itself, if you do not count on a high load.

Sorry. The team is looking into the issue. Technical Error Code:

upd2 : Google Reader - a zombie. Bot Feedfetcher-Google; (+ http: //www.google.com/feedfetcher.html; N subscribers) is still looking at sites looking for rss feeds. No kidding

A short and very sad list of alternatives:
- Inoreader . Visual copy of Google Reader. There is no built-in player for podcasts. There is a pda version . A personal choice for me, for lack of a better
- G2Reader . “Temporarily” OPML import broke. No built-in podcast player. Unable to view recording time.
- Feedly . No SSL. The interface is not just bad, but very bad - I can’t even look at the time the record was created, I don’t know which platforms this interface is made for, except for tablets. Feeds are barely added. Images from feeds are loaded in 10% -20% of cases. There is still no import of OPML. On the plus side: different options for displaying the tape, which was not even in Google Reader, for example, displaying 4 entries per column per line.
- Reader digg . Unfeasible. At all. There is nothing. You do not need to specify sorting.
- AOL Reader . Closed beta test.
