I used to use Google Reader until they made some changes, hmm, some time ago. Switched to Newsblur and use the "scoring"-mechanism there quite a bit, especially handy with feeds having multiple authors or tags where I only want to follow a subset. I use Blar on android, works fine. I don't bother with share-buttons, as I hang on IRC. Copy+paste is good enough for me.
I've been testing out flipboard: completely different idea. I don't want a newspaper that needs to be browsed, I want to quickly skim and mark-read headlines, then spend some time on the remainder. I got my habits from Usenet and very active mailinglists: sort, filter, killfile or be overwhelmed.
With the slowdown at Newsblur yesterday I opened my wallet, as Newsblur provides me with stuff to read when inbetween books or interesting programming projects. And I... Need... Input! I have all the stuff I need to run a copy of Newsblur but I'm not gonna, it'll take time I don't want to spend.
