There you could quickly and conveniently connect RSS subscriptions to various resources and always have the latest news and reports from projects before your eyes. A few years ago I even wrote my own module for sending SMS from the iGoogle page. Everything worked great, it's strange that Google made this decision. Of course, you can see that RSS is an outdated technology that has its pros and cons, but I haven’t found anything simpler yet. RSS still makes it extremely easy to set up any software product to create update feeds, and iGoogle just let it all be organized on one page in a convenient and simple interface.

When we covered Google Reader, I switched to Feedly and was very pleased, it is much more convenient than the good old reader and now I really hope that no less worthy alternatives will emerge from iGoogle.
