    It's a sad day for all the users of Google Reader. It was the second more frequently used service of Google for me. First being Gmail.

      'Google Reader' trended on Twitter for quite some time after the news broke. A lot of marketers with big ol' sites, like Maria Popova, vented their spleen. For those of us who depend on RSS feeds to provide (at least some) content for our sites, it's a toughie.

      Everybody will adapt, but part of what makes it so frustrating is that Reader had a very committed userbase and was one of the few Google products that really warranted continuation.
