My brother came round for tea the other day and shared the ‘shocking’ news that Google Reader is shutting up shop! Shocking for him at least, who has a lifetime of RSS feeds on there. I looked on blankly and topped up his tea. RSS feeds are something I think I should understand better (I have a link over there on the right after all!) But the simplicity of Bloglovin has allowed me to be wilfully remiss and it’s an easy way to keep up with all you lovely bloggy fellows. For once, my digital ignorance has worked in my favour! Thank you google.
I’m sharing your brother’s shock. You aren’t the first I’ve seen mention bloglovin’. Perhaps it will be my answer to the Google Reader conundrum.
RIP google reader! it was totally a shock!
I’m so glad you posted this as I was wondering what to transfer to and didn’t like any of the recommendations on more techy blog posts. I’ve imported my reader into bloglovin and it’s great so I’ve happily abandoned Google Reader long before I thought I would. thanks x
