About Google Reader:.
"Google announced they were discontinuing Google Reader, stating the product had a loyal but declining following, and they wanted to focus on fewer products".
I cannot believe it's true. My understanding is with a news aggregator like it Google cannot control the news feed like it does with Google news.
- romed 8y agoThat’s not the reason. Vic Gundotra, the mastermind/moron behind Google+ would not tolerate any other Google properties with social features. Since you could share feeds and articles on Reader, and because it had followers and comments and whatnot, it had to be sacrificed on the altar of Google+.
