I recently had a fan of my Google Reader Absolutely Compact script ask for my thoughts on a replacement for Google Reader. Here is my response:

As far as replacements for Google Reader, I haven’t found anything that exactly matches how I have come to use it. The closest I have found are Feedly & The Old Reader. Each of them comes close, but lacks certain functionality that I’ve come to depend on. I’m hoping that in the coming months, one of those two will add features to more closely resemble Google Reader or that a new entrant to the field will come to fill the void (Digg has announced that they are building a feed reader).

Lifehacker has recently put the question to their readers (Feedly seems to be their hands-down choice). If you’re on Twitter, you can follow me (@DustinLuck) as that’s probably where I’ll post any updates on my quest to find a Google Reader replacement. Once I settle on something, chances are very good that I will make an Absolutely Customizable script for my new choice.
