Google Reader Alternatives

Google will be retiring Reader July 1st 2013. So it will be a good idea to backup/export your feeds before its shutdown. You can use Google Takeout to download a backup of your stuff.

I’ve been playing with a few of them and none quiet feel the same. So far my favorite alternative I’ve found is The Old Reader.  Though its currently in beta and getting hammered as everyone is find a few alternative it looks very promising!  Below I’ve listed some alternatives for you to look into and find one that suits you better.
