OS X: Previously-mentioned ReadKit has always been a great way to catch up on your Instapaper, Pocket, or Readability queues, but the app recently expanded its scope to include support for several RSS syncing solutions to help ease the transition from Google Reader.First, the bad news: Feedly isn't currently among the supported services. But if you're using NewsBlur, Feedbin, Fever or Feed Wrangler, this is a fantastic client for Mac users. You can also enter RSS feeds manually, if you aren't concerned about syncing. Your folders appear in the sidebar alongside your read it later queue, and I have to admit, it makes a ton of sense to merge the two concepts into a single app. Once you run out of new articles, the older stuff you want to catch up on is just a click away.The reading experience is top notch, especially the single-column focus mode to help you concentrate on the article in front of you. You can also select any typeface on your system as your preferred reading font. If you're a news hound and own a Mac, ReadKit is absolutely worth adding to your dock.ReadKit ($4.99) | Mac App Store

Feedly Gets Its Own Syncing Service, Detaches You From Google Reader
The internet probably doesn't need to be reminded that Google Reader is heading out the door on July 1st. The good news is, Feedly has already stepped up with its own sync server that's coming online now.The migration process has begun for users on iOS, Android, and the desktop. You shouldn't have to do anything, but if you don't see it, you might need to update the app. The upgrade has been rolling out over the last few days, so it may take a while to get to you. When it happens you'll get a happy green notification like the one above. After that point, you won't be relying on Google servers at all. Feedly is going to allow other developers to plug in to this system, so apps like Press, Reeder, and gReader can continue to function exactly as they did before.The one downside is that unread counts and some Saved articles are getting lost in the transition. Once you've migrated, everything should work again, but the transition may be a little messy. Still, it's a lot better than everything shutting down in two weeks.Feedly’s Migration To Its New RSS Server Has Begun, Is Messy | Lifehacker Australia
