Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

There are no alternatives!

Nah, just kidding. But I get why they want to consolidate. How much penetration does RSS have into non-tech savvy users? I did get someone email me telling my provocateuse RSS was down, but I'm filing them as passive aggressive, since it's not down--I just haven't updated in a millenium. I hope they appreciated the one new record after I responded.

I should check web logs, though.

Oh no! I love google reader, and don't want to explore alternatives! (But what are they? )

But what are they?

And can I get to them through our firewalls?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Oh crapity.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Joining the chorus of woe. I don't want to have to migrate my feeds or whatever, though presumably someone will make that easy, right?

I am sort of still annoyed about migrating from bloglines!

Some people on Twitter are claiming that Twitter killed Google Reader, which I don't really get. It doesn't work the same at ALL.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

WTF????

Personally I think Google killed Reader with their crappy redesign, which is when I pretty much stopped using it. I picked the blogs I liked most and get them via email now. Which is good for book/film reviews, but I'd rather a reader option for everything else.

I've heard people get blogs via Twitter but I've never understood how. I assume some app I don't use.

Some of the people I follow on Twitter post links to their blog posts. But not always, and I still have to open another window to read them. It's so completely different.

I got used to the redesign, and for me GReader works the same as it always did, since I never got into the social functions (which they killed when they introduced G+).
