Sad, sad. I love seeing all the stealth replacements pop up in the last week or so.

Still, it is a sad day for RSS in general.

Google, this will not help me use G+.

Sad.

Right up till the 11th hour I held out hope that Google would give Reader a last minute stay of execution. A sad day indeed.

I didn't want to accept this would happen. So it's kinda hard to believe it actually did.

Oh well, more free time.

If they'd integrated it into G+ I would have been less hesitant to use it.
