#GOOGLE READER READ IT LATER CODE#

All apps are scheduled to be updated with Feedly support before the 1 July Google Reader cutoff. Congrats to the Feedly team on its prescience and quick action.įeedly offers clients for the Web and iOS, but if you already have an RSS reader you’ve grown attached to, good news! Feedly has opened up its cloud API to third-party developers. Feedly made good on its word, and as of 19 June, has moved away from Google to its own infrastructure. We also mentioned back then that Feedly was building its own service, dubbed Normandy, to replace Google Reader for syncing. All the services we mention here will import Google Reader’s subscriptions.xml file for you, so be sure to hold on to your export until you’re good and settled.įeedly - When we last checked in on Feedly, it was by far the best alternative to Google Reader: it’s free, multi-platform, and imports directly from your Google Reader account. If you haven’t done so already, be sure to export your existing Google Reader subscriptions to OPML. I’ve sorted through the competition to find the best choices that work for multiple platforms, have third-party support, and, if possible, follow sustainable business models. And our previous favorite, Feedly, even has some new flair to share.

The good news is that the developer community has come through, and there are now several compelling alternatives to Google Reader for those who want syncing of RSS subscriptions between devices, though all are far from complete. Another one of our picks, Netvibes, is in sore need of an update. Fever, a self-hosted solution, isn’t a top priority for its developer, Shaun Inman. When Google first announced the death of Reader, we took a look at the field of candidates available at the time, but frankly, it was a field that was dry and barren (see “ Explore Alternatives to Google Reader,” 18 March 2013). After 1 July 2013, without a last-minute call from Governor Larry Page, Google is flipping the switch and sending Reader to the land of abandoned Google initiatives. With the imminent death of Google Reader, it’s time to fish for a new RSS syncing service or cut bait, so to speak. #1652: OS updates, DPReview shuttered, LucidLink cloud storage.#1653: Apple Music Classical review, Authory service for writers, WWDC 2023 dates announced.1654: Urgent OS security updates, upgrading to macOS 13 Ventura, using smart speakers while temporarily blind.#1655: 33 years of TidBITS, Twitter train wreck, tvOS 16.4.1, Apple Card Savings, Steve Jobs ebook.#1656: Passcode thieves lock iCloud accounts, the apps Adam uses, iPhoto and Aperture library conversion in Ventura.You can adapt the steps outlined at the following link to run the AppleScript I included above: Global HotKey for Pause/Play,Next Song, etc.

Simply use OS X's built-in application, Automator. Update: I've since found a better way to accomplish this, without requiring something like Fastscripts. You can trigger this action via Terminal ( osascript), by double-clicking the script (in Terminal or on your desktop), via an app launcher like Quicksilver, via Fastscripts, etc. From that point on, you can run this script to add the active tab in Google Chrome to Safari's reading list.
