rss2email running on a server. It converts rss entries to email, which then gets sent to an email account that filters them into a folder. Email is surprisingly an ideal platform for this kind of information. You can read it pretty much anywhere: web, desktop client and phone client.

Other : Just mine... a special software developped with Python/Django/Celery and that works fine. The architectures is not proper for a huge loading but for me it is sufficient.

I have implemented a Google-Reader like appearence (navigation in the left, list of posts in the right) but have added some UI that was missing to me in GR (tags and subscription are not in the same place, hierarchical tags, not just one star but five to a better evaluation, a right panel that appears to show the post,...).

My purpose wasn't only to follow posts but to organize them so that I can't find them quickly and logicaly later when needed. Several things could be improved but the critical path and emergency to import my GR data before the 1st july are passed and worked fine.

Now I just know that if something very important needs to be improved I can work on it as I want :-)

Guys I can see alot of people use feedly but with complaints - if you want something better then original greader have a look on inoreader - seriously, I'm using it and I wouldn't switch back to greader from it.

I'm using Inoreader too and I'm quite happy with it. I would like to give a try also to Yoleoreader, but right now it just can import the feed list from Google Reader and it's not good for me

I grudgingly use Feedly. I don't like it (too much mystery meat navigation), but it's good enough.

Even though you might have to host it yourself (or email me, i can setup a temporary account on mine for you to test with), I've found I like TinyTiny RSS's UI. It doesn't try to get in my way with my reading, and replicates the way that I had been using google reader with liferea fairly well. I don't have any complaints about it (other than it loading a little slow sometimes).

Ah, I'll install it on my home server and give it a shot, thank you very much for the recommendation.
