Take my survey

Hy everybody. It’s Jane, Likehack founder. I think that today, when Google announced that they will shut down Google Reader I have to say thanks to Google Reader.

I understood, that Google Reader for many years made me feel, that news reading problem is not solved.

Of course, as guys on TechCrunch said, RSS is not useful. And of course, like guys from Mashable said, it saves your mind from lolcats)

But the main problem is that Google Reader always made me feel bad. Yes, I need to read Techcrunch, VentureBeat, etc. I want to read many things. But OMG, when I see these 100500 unread messages I feel sick.

I’ve been trying using Google Reader for many times. But it always ended because I felt that I am just not able to read all this. And I stopped.

Twitter and Facebook give better alternative because content is manually selected. But they have another problem – too much crap and no control)))

And that what I dream Likehack should be in a month when we will release beta.

No crap. Only manually selected content. Full control. And finally I will get only best for me from any site, blog or social feed. To feel better and stay in touch with the world.

P.S. And while we are still in Alpha – stay in touch, sign up at Likehack.com or use some more simple alternatives to Google Reader like listed here.

The main thing that Tweeter users keep asking themselves is “How do I make my Twitter feed more interesting?”. Of course, if you use Twitter only for communication with friends, you do not need this. But still there are a lot of feeds, which regularly post interesting content, and it’s just silly not to use them. Why should you use a separate RSS-reader, if almost every site now has its own Twitter account, which publishes the most interesting materials? But then the next question arises: “What are the best feeds to follow? How can I find someone really interesting on Tweeter?” Continue reading “How to find someone interesting to follow on Twitter?” »
