There is some confusion here between RSS and Reader. RSS isn't being canceled. Anyone can download any feed any time they like.
You did need a Google account to use Reader, which made it not so anonymous and not so private.
Once again, RSS != Google Reader. They are not even the same type.
- Samuel_Michon 14y agoI didn't use the Google Reader web client. I'm not even sad to see it go, I think the UI is really bad. Yet, I use the Google Reader service all day, through RSS clients on several platforms (none of which made by Google). I use the Google Reader service to store my subscriptions and allow for syncing of my read items, starred items, etc. That's what I'll need to find a replacement for: a RSS service that interfaces with all the RSS clients that I know and love.
- maigret 14y agoYup, still this is a move against RSS from one of the biggest Internet company. Such a company sets trends and moves markets. So it matters.
