my weekend project, Good Old Google Reader

In plain words

Good Old Google Reader is a work tool that recreates the Google Reader experience. Launched in 2011, it provides a familiar interface for those who relied on Google Reader's functionality. The service allows users to aggregate and read RSS feeds in a clean, straightforward format similar to the original Google Reader before it was discontinued.
