Bye Bye Google Reader - Hello Feedly!

This is not a typical post from me on Motivation for Health and Fitness, its a shout out for those of you who use Google Reader to read my posts.

When I opened Google Reader last night to read some of my favorite blogs I instantly got a warning stating "Google Reader is being shut down on July 1st, 2013."  They didn't give us any assistance as in where do we go from here either, but I did some searching on the internet this morning and found a App Feedly.

Feedly will use Google Reader API to transfer all your subscriptions to it and if you add new subscriptions to Google Reader before July 1st, it automatically syncs to Feedly.

Once Google Reader is shut down, Feedly will seamlessly take over and you won't know the difference.

It's important for me as a blogger, I want you sticking around!  Those of you that get my posts through email have no worries!

Go do it now before you forget and if your a blogger and do not want to lose a portion of your readers, I would suggest doing the same thing!

  1. It's times like this that I'm glad I keep it very simple in my computer / phone / Internet world.

  2. I am so unhappy with this Google Reader coming to an end. But I found something for my feeds too called Bloglovin. Great for iPhones and PC.
