Back in July, Google Reader bit the dust, and RSS lovers everywhere flocked toFeedlyin droves.
Or what if Feedly decide to close their doors, just like Google Reader did?
Where can you go then?
Well, the answer in both scenarios is Tiny Tiny RSS.
What Is Tiny Tiny RSS?
Tiny Tiny RSS (TT-RSS) is a very simple, no frills RSS reader that you host yourself.
What’s more, TT-RSS can also be easily configured to look and work a lot like Google Reader.
Woah There Sparky!
How Do I Get Set Up?
Once that’s done you’re all set.
Getting the feeds updated is the piece of the puzzle most TT-RSS users struggle with.
There are two quick and easy ways to make your feeds update automatically.
The second way of getting TT-RSS to update feeds automatically is to set up “simple update mode”.
This is useful for those that don’t have access to Cron, or have problems getting it working.
Save the file, then upload the new version of config.php, overwriting the old version if necessary.
That’s it – your feeds will now update whenever you are logged in to TT-RSS.
you could also force a feed to update by double-clicking on it.
That’s Far To Technical For Me, What Can I Do?
Using this kind of hosting means that you don’t have to worry about managing the server yourself.
Is there another self-hosted RSS feed reader that you use?
