Google Reader is dead. Here are five alternatives.

Google Reader officially closed on Monday, leaving a void in the information aggregation market. Check out our list of Google Reader replacements.

5. The Old Reader

Google Chrome website
The Old Reader lets you browse news, check out what your friends are looking at, and even make comments.

As the name implies, the old reader is a classic take on the tried-and-true Google Reader. The Old Reader site is currently in Beta, but it’s off to a promising start. The interface is simple with a bright red and green interface, and you can import your old RSS feeds and lists from Google. The app also lets you discuss posts with friends and follow their news feeds.

Is there an app? No, not yet anyway.

Cost? Free.

Why is Christian Science in our name?

Our name is about honesty. The Monitor is owned by The Christian Science Church, and we’ve always been transparent about that.

The Church publishes the Monitor because it sees good journalism as vital to progress in the world. Since 1908, we’ve aimed “to injure no man, but to bless all mankind,” as our founder, Mary Baker Eddy, put it.

Here, you’ll find award-winning journalism not driven by commercial influences – a news organization that takes seriously its mission to uplift the world by seeking solutions and finding reasons for credible hope.
