I'm Glad Google Is Retiring Reader.

2013-04-15

Because I and about a zillion other jilted Reader fans have now found Feedly.

Feedly is what Reader wanted to be when it grew up, but never had the chance to become.

Yes, it’s that good.

Just in case anyone out there reading this is thinking “Google What?” - here’s the skinny.  If you find yourself reading a lot of websites on a regular basis, constantly checking back to keep up to date with the latest, you REALLY want a feed reader like this.  With something like this, you can treat them all as if you were browsing articles in a newspaper or magazine, either slavishly reading every one or, as I do, cherry picking what most piques your interest from the stream (or firehose as we geeks like to refer to it :)

DEAD is dead!

2008-08-18

I had a rather ‘meta’ moment today after reading another article bemoaning the death of the PC as a gaming platform (An assertion of at best dubious nature).

Taking a step back, I realized that just about every single instance of someone wailing “X is DEAD!” turned out to either be patently untrue or at least a severely twisted view of the facts at hand.
