Language Learning, Comprehensive Input and Google Reader

Several months back I wrote a blog post about how I use Google Reader to help me get my comprehensive input on language learning and upkeep. Well, now we have shocking news that Google Reader is done for on July 1st, 2013, of this year. For all of you who might have taken my advice on this (and those who might have discovered for yourselves the usefulness of Google Reader) I just want to let you know what I'm doing with it...

I have had Feedly pretty much since they opened for business, but because I don't like the way they keep my folders I also took a subscription to NewsBlur. One other thing that I really, really like about NewsBlur is that I can have the entire story on my computer, iPhone, iPad and Samsung Galaxy.

Now I can access all of the newsfeeds I have in one app. I can read the news items in foreign languages, the foreign languages blogs and blogs about languages in general, pretty much anywhere I go at all.

Let me know your experience with using readers for language acquisition. I'm always interested!
