That's a slick RSS reader. I have previously used The Old Reader for its simplicity. I am currently using Feedly as it has good Android support and are doing good job with Evernote integration. Thanks for suggesting the RSS reader and the age RSS app.

RSS is a very good nice technology from users point of view. One place to get all your news but it's a shame that companies like want to move away from open protocols like RSS and XMPP.

I have so far not been able to solve the problem of reading Hacker's News and Reddit. The easiest way to read these news aggregation sites have been to visit their front page. I couldn't find anything that would send posts that come on the front page of HN and Reddit in my RSS inbox.

I use the web version of kouio on android every day, it's tailored directly to mobile devices:

You can also push articles out to a whole ton of services at once, including Evernote:

As for HN and Reddit, RSS is perfect for these - HN has its own RSS feed dedicated to front-page items:

It gets even better with Reddit, each individual subreddit has its own RSS feed, eg:

http://www.reddit.com/r/systems/.rss

With kouio I group together all the interesting subreddit feeds under a folder called Reddit - then I can view them individually or all together at once.

reddit's RSS features are even better than that. You can feed off users, searches, multireddits, comments on a specific post, submission from a domain, and probably more.

Don't you get myriad of posts with those the official feeds [1] [2]?

For reading HN try this:

http://hckrnews.com/

I skim only the top 10 of each day (meaning that you'll get only articles with more than 150 upvotes). It can be tricky if you are interested in good specific articles (that normally don't get 150 votes). In that way you need to see the top 20 of each day.

That is certainly better experience than using vanilla HN. Thanks.

There are also 50-, 100-, and 150- point cutoffls, and maybe more...
