I have gone through my Kubler-Ross stages of grief after hearing of the upcoming demise of Google Reader, and I have finally reached acceptance. This has been made much easier thanks to the many other devoted Google Reader fans who are going through the same process, and the fact that there are quite a few powerful alternatives out there.

My choice, and the choice of over 3 million new users since Google's announcement, is Feedly. It is very easy to import your feeds- just log in using your Google Reader info, and voila, there they are! It also has apps for iPhone, iPad and Android devices. It offers many of the functions that Google Reader has including sharing, saving and tagging. They even have information for those of us new to Feedly. Very handy!

So, if you get your HealthLINE blog updates via Google Reader, remember to import the feed to a new service before Google pulls the plug on July 1st!
