I’ve been using Tiny Tiny RSS for a few years, and I’ve made a few minor tweaks to add URL-shortening and sharing features: that’s what powers the “Dan is reading…” ( subscribe) list in the sidebar of my blog.

Install it on your server, configure it the way you want, and then access it via the web or the Android app. Tiny Tiny RSS – if you’re happy to host your own web-based RSS reader, and you’re enough of a geek to enjoy tweaking it the way that you want, then this tool is simply awesome.You’ve got a few different choices for your new RSS reader. OPML files describe a list of subscriptions: for example, this OPML file describes all of the blogs that used to feature on Abnib (when it worked reliably). You can export everything from your Reader account, but the most important thing in your export is probably the OPML file (called ‘subscriptions.xml’ in your download), which is what your new reader will use to give you the continuity that you’re looking for. The good news is that it’s pretty easy to get all of your feeds out of Google Reader, and import them into your new feed reader.


You were my RSS reader of choice for a long time, until you started fucking with the user interface the other year. Google are dropping Google Reader on 1st July (here’s the announcement on the Google Reader blog), so it’s time to move on. I’m aware that many of my friends use Google Reader to subscribe to their favourite blogs, comics, and so on, so – if you’re among them – I thought I’d better make you aware of some of your alternatives.
