Thoughts surrounding Google Reader’s demise Matt Haughey talks about RSS and news readers. I’m glad to say that I just renewed my annual subscription for NewsBlur, so as a news consumer, I’m not too affected by the impending demise of Google Reader. I do worry that the loss of Google Reader will reduce the readership of RSS feeds in general, and most of the readers of this blog still read it through RSS. I’d still write the blog if only ten people read it, but it’s nice to know people are reading it, or at least marking it read in their favorite reader.
