Google Reader

Google decided in July not to continue there Google Reader service. I was getting all my new Scubaboard feeds through that service. Does anyone know how to set something similar up on Microsoft outlook or something similar?

Thanks
Dean

Personally I use a Chrome plugin for my RSS feeds. There's lots of alternative RSS readers out there, you just gotta find something that suits your needs.

I was quite pissed off at the decision to discontinue Google Reader. It has really soured my appetite for any Google products in the future. They are getting quite a track record of discontinuing things that people are still finding useful.

I too used Google Reader a LOT. Had about 30 blogs I liked to follow, a lot of them were small and didn't even have things like mailing lists!
Now I have to manually visit each website, if I can remember to (first world problems....)

Apparently; Google expects everyone to get their info from... social media websites and twitter feeds? No thanks.

Why do people think that Google Reader was the only way to read RSS feeds?
