Del Soden said...

So what's the alternative?
I use Feddler on my iPad. I suppose I better find out if I can download it to my computer.
I also use Google reader nearly every day.

Does anyone know if there are any other sites that do the same thing as google reader?

Totally pisses me off, I have used this for YEARS.

Peg - Happy In Quilting said...

I am very cross too. There are a lot of cross people!!

Susan said...

I don't use google reader - I just put all the blogs I want to read on my sidebar and read from there - probably an old way to do it - but it works...(for me). Like all big organisations - they make a change before assessing the impact.

Deb said...

I saw this too, this is my roadmap to all great blogs I read!! what the heck!!
I am now trying to think what is the best way to follow any ideas?

I have just signed up for "Blog Lovin" should still work the same but transferring over the blogs I real will be some what painfull!

Hello Donna,

Saw this morning and thought corporate greed was sneaking into blogging, money will pop up somewhere and we will be charged for it. Signed the petition. Hope they tell us how we should read blogs now. I use Google Reader because it is so easy and you don't have to wait to load up peoples blogs. I am sure some people don't realise how much time it takes for their blog to load up. Lets hope somehow it all works out in the end.

Happy days.
Bev.xoxo

Damn them, I'm going to give Feedly a try, otherwise I will do what Susan is doing (which is what I used to do before I discovered Google Reader) off to sign the petition now.

fabricmad said...

Give Bloglovin a try - I find it good but had never used google reader so don't have that to compare it to.

brickies said...

What the!! I was so peeved when it came up. Went into shock. Its my connection to the outside world. Reader makes blog reading so quick. Damn you Google. Once reader goes you (Google) may have to go too. Ahhh thats better :)

Anita said...

I just saw that too!! Are there other blog feed readers out there?

wish2stitch said...

Peition signed

Terry said...

I saw that this morning and I'm trying out Feedly right now. It's different, but so far I think I mostly like it.

Valda Mason said...

Please explain, will I no longer have a blog? So new to this. Nana on the farm Valda.

Jenny said...

I just found out too and am not a happy chappy!

lzilulu said...

Just transferred all of mine to Bloglovin....and I think I'm going to love it ;)

Anthea said...

Chooky, this is a really interesting issue, but a little confusing for me at the same time...
I have never used Reader, I have always just clicked on the blog posts as they are listed to the right of my Reading List, you know how they are featured on Dashboard. I am just hoping that this facility remains! It will be interesting to read about what others do...

Aussie Nanna said...

Hi Chooky
I have transferred all mine to Bloglovin and it seems to be working well so far....bit different to reader. I am in the process of setting up a blog again....lol...
Someone took over my old one!!
Still fumbling through the setting up and have not posted anything yet...
Will keep you posted :)
