Ask HN: What's the best tool you used to use that doesn't exist anymore?
Google Reader. There are no replacements that a) update fast enough, and b) allow search for free. I know, I tried all of them.<p>Firefox had an amazing plugin called "Ubiquity", which was basically like command line for your browser and you could write custom scripts for it. It was seriously better than anything that exists today. They stopped developing it for some reason. Tab Groups is another feature that's now abandoned, despite being superior to everything else that exists.<p>Forte Agent (free version) - great text Usenet reader, now abandonware.
