Goodbye Google Reader

· ·

Shawn Blanc adds a voice of reason to the news that Google is shutting down its RSS subscription service, Reader:

The sites we read and subscribe to are not going away — it’s just the service we’ve been using to keep our read statuses in sync that is. Over the coming months there will no doubt be several alternatives which begin popping up, and so long as you’ve got your OPML file then you can move your “subscriptions” anywhere you like.
