"Perfect RSS Reader is fairly similar to most RSS feed readers. You can see your list of new article to the left of the app, you can scroll to the next story by swiping downward or upward, you can update your feed at anytime by refreshing the list. But the one thing that makes this app stand out from the rest is the photo browsing feature."

The Google Reader Team is proud to introduce several new help resources designed specifically at introducing beginners to using Reader: Google Reader Help Videos and the Google Reader Getting Started Guide, both accessible directly from our Help Center.

Google Reader is shutting down in two days and it is therefore important that you migrate your existing RSS feed subscriptions elsewhere. There are quite a few Reader alternatives to choose from though I have finally picked Feedly as the new home for my beloved feeds.

"For me, the most annoying part of Google Reader shutting down on July 1 is ensuring that we all continue to appreciate that understanding how to harness the power of RSS is an important skill for educators and students."

"The News app is bundled in modern versions of iOS, accessible from the home screen as a standard app icon and from the Siri Suggestions screen in Spotlight under the News section on an iPhone or iPad. While News app includes a handful of curated Apple-approved sites, users can customize the app on their own by adding websites they like, and also use the News app as an RSS reader. This allows you to add just about any site or feed to News app yourself, including great sites like this one."

"RSS may not be the most popular way to get updates from your favorite sites anymore, but a lot of people, including myself, still use it regularly to quickly peruse and read a lot of information. The iPad is a great platform for catching up on your online reading, but there are lots of apps out there that do the same job - so how do you know which one is the best? I saved you the time of looking through them all by trying them out myself. Here's what I found."

rssa.at provides a simple way for non-technical people to create RSS feeds for websites. In just a couple of steps you can create a lovely feed, complete with icon, to add to your site, your feed reader or to share with other websites. This 'live' feed will then automatically update when the content on the website updates, meaning that and all the changes and syndicated neatly across the Internet and social media outlets. We've also synced up with Twitter, so if you enter your Twitter account details into your rssa account, we'll post your rss feed automatically up on Twitter as well.

Why Do We Need RSS Readers?

"There's no shortage of news reader apps and services. For some of us, Twitter and Facebook do a good enough job. Then there are intelligent services like Nuzzel that show us stories that multiple people in our network are sharing, but you have no control over the actual feed."
