Or, if you really like to view posts from a reader, you can try some of the popular tools that are replacing Google Reader. The one that seems to have the most buzz is called Feedly.

Here’s a step-by-step guide to move your feeds from Google Reader to Feedly.

Here’s what Feedly wants you to know about moving from Google Reader.

You may want to try out Feedly, which requires a free plug-in for Firefox, Safari and Chrome browsers. (It doesn’t work in Internet Explorer.) When you log in with your Google name and password, it will re-create your Google Reader for you. (It can’t get much easier than that!) It also had a neat feature that allows you to easily add feeds to your Feedly reader via an integrated button on your browser.

There are many other alternatives to Google Reader to capture and review the content you like to see. FlipBoard is one app that combines a visual and content focused experience. If you like many options, The New York Times recently published an article about readers. They note, “Newsreaders are available for every kind of phone, tablet and computer: Bloglines, NewsBlur, Pulse, Taptu, Reeder, FeedDemon, Spundge, Good Noows, HiveMined, Prismatic, Netvibes, NetNewsWire, ManagingNews and so on.”

So, if you’re a Google Reader fan, make the switch now, before it’s too late. If you never look at your feeds anyway, be sure to sign up via email to receive Keppie Careers’ links once a week. Please share your ideas for keeping track of your favorite blogs in the comments.
