Thank you for posting about NewsBlur. I&#x27;d like to remind everybody that one of its most important features is that it is entirely open source<p><a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;samuelclay" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;samuelclay</a><p>This means that if I were to ever invoke the bus factor you would still be able to use the same reader you use today. It negates the Google Reader problem and gives you confidence that I&#x27;m not selling your data or doing anything nefarious.<p>Plus it means you can contribute your own pet feature. About sixty people have done that so far, for web, iOS, and android. Open sourcing has paid off in spades and I&#x27;m planning to do the same for my next secret project, of which I&#x27;m in China for right now.
