Rojo’s Fuck Up and Google Reader

Tuesday, September 19th, 2006

So, Rojo did an “upgrade” over the last two days and the shit has hit the fan. It is completely fucked and basically unuseable. Check out the forums if you want specifics, but honestly it is just a whole shit storm. SO… I was lucky enough to get my OPML out and imported it into Google Reader. Now I MAY go back to Rojo as I haven’t written them off, but three days without news is a lot so at least I have something to fall back on. THUS far Google has been pretty sturdy. The interface is kinda akward and I have to do a little re-learning.. but it does supports tags and saves so it really does what I need.

If you are looking for a lightweight web based RSS reader I could definately check it out:
