Yup got to know that Google is shutting down Google Reader earlier and had been searching for alternatives.
For me it’s kind of a very emotional news because since long time I’m being using Google Reader. To get latest updates information Google Reader is still very best. I know there are plenty of other alternatives available but I’ll take time to match with those alternatives. I’m planning to go for Slide Reader because it seems to me user friendly and effective working portal. Thanks.
