Many people love Google Reader but as every good thing comes to an end, so has Google Reader.

Google announced the end of Google Reader, and it has left a lot of users in dread, and needing to find an alternative.

Luckily, there are many other RSS services available as an alternative to Google Reader – here are the best five in our view.

Feedly: This is a free service that is available as an extension for safari and chrome browser, this service is also available for iPhone and Android via App. Its work great on tablets and mobile, and looks great on the web also.

News Blur: News blur is easy to use and has a well built interface RSS reader. The good thing about news blur is you can toggle the original view and you can read the article as they display on their respective sites. If you don’t want images and want only text you can chose text only.

NetVibes: NetVibes is basically an analytic service for social media that help business for social media analysis but it is also a very robust RSS service. They offer free, premium and pro accounts but regarding RSS feeds specifically, you can get everything that you need from the free account.

Taptu: Taptu is another free RSS service that gives a nice visual interface for browsing news feeds and it also allows you to add your personal twitter or Facebook feed in it. This service is available on the web as well as on iPhone and Android app also. You can also customise the app to your likes.

Google Currents: It’s available on iPhone and Android and it is one of the best alternatives to Google Reader. If you have not heard about it before than you are not the only one. It launched in December 2011, and now that Google Reader is on the way out, Google Currents will definitely rise.
