As sad day indeed!
Google reader to go... If you have used the service you can see why in some respects it is being made redundant.
Who really has time to go back in an read information collected from lots of sites. These days we are more reading on the go, with smartphones handy and tablet devices, you are able to read what you want on the go, and not having to wait until you get home to log on to your google reader account.
Google announced Wednesday that Reader’s closing. Which means your RSS followers won’t see your posts anymore.
Email to the rescue!
Here is a great tip I found from Aweber -
1. Stop reading your posts altogether (that would suck).
2. Visit your site whenever they think of it (if they think of it).
3. Subscribe to your emails. Readers who would have dropped off entirely could now see you directly in their inboxes.
(Your readers can also migrate their feeds to Feedly or Flipboard for iPad. This would keep you in contact, but like we always say, “Email over RSS” – an email’s less likely to be missed.)

What’s Email Got To Do With It?
Well, your soon-to-be-ex-Reader followers have 3 options:1. Stop reading your posts altogether (that would suck).
2. Visit your site whenever they think of it (if they think of it).
3. Subscribe to your emails. Readers who would have dropped off entirely could now see you directly in their inboxes.
