Re: Goodbye Google Reader
#2I wrote this tool a while back to migrate my Google Reader to Twitter followings … since most of my RSS was pre-Twitter: http://tmnt.benguild.com
Then, I put only the 4 or 5 websites I check religiously into Google Reader, so that I can always get every update from those versus skimming the latest posts in my Twitter stream.
I find this a better/ideal solution, since that way it's 140 character summaries instead of entire articles that are unclear.

Interesting idea. I feel like I would get overloaded following every author on twitter as then you get more than just their latest blog post...

#7In case there's any confusion, the article's actual title is "Goodbye ubiquitous digital service" and uses the phrase "most ubiquitous RSS service of our time" as a euphemism for "Google Reader", hence the headline here.

It is a shame RSS has been neglected for years as well. I blame Twitter basically doing the exact same thing, worse, and entirely in JS and with a platform lock to their service.

I truly enjoy using pinboard. I even have a launchbar task for searching my links quickly. And, while I wasn't looking for social bookmarks I have to admit I really like the pinboard popular links rss feed. I suppose it's more of a niche community thing which is why I feel like they are generally of a high quality. Second only to Hacker News as my source of what's going on.
