Sorry for my ignorance, but is Google Reader a dedicated RSS reader?
Several years ago I set up several RSS feeds that i customized by choosing a
key word and I receive both email messages and RSS feeds with newspaper

Yes, Google Reader is a dedicated RSS reader. I don't know that it has
the ability to send out emails. It's interface is web based, but it has
an API that clients can use to sync your feeds with, so feeds you've

It's hard to argue that the relevance of RSS hasn't diminished somewhat
over the years, but with the rise of social networking and just the
sheer amount of information on the web, that could be said for a lot of
things. As far as mostly being replaced by Twitter, that's just not the
case for
To some extent, you can use Twitter lists to do what RSS feeds do. For example
I have a general news list, and a tech news list. Most major news publications
publish their RSS feed to Twitter. However, I prefer using an RSS reader for
anything but breaking news where I want real time updates,
Yup and Newsrack is going to be in the same boat as many other RSS readers. It
syncs with Google reader, at least for reading across devices/platforms.

What a bummer. I never found a good accessible news reader on Linux, so
I've just been using Feedller almost exclusively. Since I'm using it
pretty much exclusively, I don't really need to sync it with the cloud.
I know Feedller supports feeds outside of Google Reader. Does anyone

Shocking indeed! I think the major problem here is the fact that while
there are many fine news reading apps for desktop and mobile, none of
them really sync with anything other than Google Reader. Hopefully,
prior to July 1, this will shift and software will be updated. I'm

I don't think everything that's accessible to the blind is going away,
and actually, I never found Google Reader all that accessible. I usually

True, but the Google Reader API is the only accessible way I know of
