I&#x27;ve been paying for newsblur (<a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.newsblur.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.newsblur.com&#x2F;</a>) ever since google reader bit the dust. It&#x27;s pretty much a direct replacement. Interface has come a long way since day one and is sufficiently slick now (UI, keyboard shortcuts, etc) that I don&#x27;t really notice it.<p>Highly recommended by a (former) hardcore google reader user. If I recall correctly, got quite a good bit of press here on HN at the time.
