Wow. Google’s just released a new RSS feed reader.
I’ve only just poked around a little bit, but it looks very, very cool. You’ve heard me wax elegiac about Bloglines before; will this be a Bloglines killer? The main advantage I can see now is that Google’s feed reader doesn’t use frames, like Bloglines does, and it appears to be more responsive. Bloglines, however, allows users to create folders for various feeds, and you can’t do that with Google’s service.
One interesting thing to note: Google doesn’t call this an RSS service; they call it a feed reader. Which is smart — RSS sounds intimidating, and “feed” is a more tangible, intuitive way to describe RSS.
