Now that Google will supposedly go ahead with its idiocy to take off RSS Feeds off the radar, businesses and the content creation community cannot sit around moping the loss of this dear thing.

RSS was the main helping tool for many but it was going nowhere the G-Team believes. Well that's that! Heard that and now move on.

A good thing about the announcement has been its early nature, giving a recuperation time to the web-based industries.

Indeed the transition to a new application will most likely be full of ups and downs, resulting in a mangled feed organization.But there are always other alternatives that have to be worked out for survival.

Here are the top 5 options that businesses should start acclimatizing to well before the D-Day arrives.

1. Feedly

Since the announcement was made by Google, this app has garnered a good 500,000 new users.Its over-aching compatibility across mobile apps and browsers makes this, currently, the best transitional option. Moreover the site works on a "Feedly clone of the Google API reader", providing a seamless transitional path for businesses.

2. NetVibes

Free for beginner bloggers and content creators, NetVibes is a RSS reader-cum social media monitoring and analytics solutions too. It has its difficulty levels to begin with, but once, users get used to it, its as clean as the Reader.
As uncanny as it sounds, RSSOwl is a free software available for Windows. For years it has acted as a support for Google Reader synchronization and translates in roughly 30 languages, globally.
When it comes to SMBs, NewsBlur is probably a very good option to bank on. For one it is very easy migrating from Google Reader to this in a click. The feeds are readable in three formats and saved to a number of services like Evernote for further reference and sharing. Moreover, with a 64 free feeds avaialble as of now, NewsBlur works well on a iPad, iPhone and Android apps.

5.FlipBoard

It is a social magazine that aggregates feeds from a wide array of social media sites- Twitter feeds, Facebook friends, Flickr contacts as well as the Google Reader, until it survives. It is easily available on iOS and Android but has desktop version.

Do let us know if you have any other better add-on's to this list, after all everybody is on a lookout for the better option in the coming months.
