Other options for RSS readers?
The great wonders of RSS readers have allowed many of us to completely circumvent the process of having to go to an actual website and/or blog to get our news—regardless of whether or not it’s “professional” journalism, online blogging, or just an expert in the field of whatever trips our fancy at one single, solitary given moment.
A good handful of what I read ends up inspiring conversations throughout the day, pitches that end up on my editors’ desks, and even posts here. However, I’m running into what is becoming a giant limitation with Google Reader, so I’m reaching out to blogosphere for some advice. I oft will read a post by say, Fred Wilson, and will want to keep it as reference for future articles and/or blog posts. However, in starring it, I also wish to add notations in order remember why I starred it and cannot seem to do this.
Is there an RSS platform available that allows for this—much in the same way that one can add comments and bookmarks within almost any PDF reader software? As much as I love Google Reader, this is progressively becoming more of a frustration, so any suggestions would be amazing!
Everyone should have a printing press and should use it as often as they see fit. Through things like RSS and Twitter’s follow model, we can subscribe to the voices we want to hear regularly. And through things like reblog and retweet, the voices we don’t subscribe to can get into our readers, dashboards, and timelines.
