Despite a hue and cry from disappointed users, Google has not made any moves to reverse its decision
to close down Google Reader on the first of July, just a few weeks away. Despite the name — and the functions it started out with in 2001 — Reader has become more than a simple interface to RSS feeds; Wikipedia gives a concise explanation of how it evolved from just a few features to a
full-blown platform of its own, incorporating social-sharing features of the kind that have become expected in many online apps. Those features have morphed over the years along with Google's larger social strategies, along the way
upsetting some readers who'd grown used to certain features. If you're a Google Reader user, will you be
replacing it with another aggregator?
