It was started on Sunday, when user applmak wrote: <\/p>\n<p><em>Reader is unable to display the canonical list of unread posts to me. When I load the page, I see:<\/p>\n<p> &#8211; A shortened list of only a few unread posts (according to the total on the &#8216;All Items&#8217; filter)<br \/>\n &#8211; A far greater number, but a truncated post list<br \/>\n &#8211; The same number, but filled with old posts<br \/>\n &#8211; The correct list of posts &#038; count.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The biggest thing I&#8217;ve noticed has simply been read items appearing as unread. <\/p>\n<p>Google&#8217;s Matti Nescio chimed in in the thread to say that the Google Reader team has been notified of the issue, and that &#8220;someone will be looking into this.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>It appears that some have been experiencing issues for even longer (as in earlier last week). I used it quite a bit over the weekend, and didn&#8217;t notice any issues until this morning. <\/p>\n<p>TechCrunch is <a href=\"http:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2013\/02\/11\/the-googlereaderpocalypse-is-upon-us-googles-feed-reading-service-unusable-since-sunday\/\">saying<\/a>, &#8220;The GoogleReaderpocalypse is upon us.&#8221; I&#8217;m not sure it&#8217;s as dramatic as that (at least I hope not). The piece suggests that Google doesn&#8217;t care much about this product anymore, as it has turned its focus to other things like Google+, despite a continued, solid user base (whose real size can only be speculated upon). <\/p>\n<p>It is true that Google has done little with Google Reader in recent memory, though I&#8217;d say it doesn&#8217;t really need much in the way of changes. Hopefully (and I&#8217;m sure many would agree) Google isn&#8217;t planning on shutting he service down in its next &#8220;spring cleaning&#8221; announcement. <\/p>\n<p>Google did <a href=\"http:\/\/www.webpronews.com\/google-adds-reader-latitude-to-google-takeout-2012-11\">add Google Reader to the Google Takeout menu<\/a> a few months ago. I hope that&#8217;s not a sign. <\/p>\n<div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=S5vjs94vY3M:jVwhr85otqw:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?d=yIl2AUoC8zA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=S5vjs94vY3M:jVwhr85otqw:wF9xT3WuBAs\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?i=S5vjs94vY3M:jVwhr85otqw:wF9xT3WuBAs\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=S5vjs94vY3M:jVwhr85otqw:7Q72WNTAKBA\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?d=7Q72WNTAKBA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=S5vjs94vY3M:jVwhr85otqw:V_sGLiPBpWU\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?i=S5vjs94vY3M:jVwhr85otqw:V_sGLiPBpWU\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=S5vjs94vY3M:jVwhr85otqw:qj6IDK7rITs\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?d=qj6IDK7rITs\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?a=S5vjs94vY3M:jVwhr85otqw:mfZ73u_VV2s\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/webpronews\/all?i=S5vjs94vY3M:jVwhr85otqw:mfZ73u_VV2s\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/webpronews\/all\/~4\/S5vjs94vY3M\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I couldn&#8217;t help but notice that Google Reader has been acting very weird, but now I know it&#8217;s not just me, as numerous people have been complaining about it, and several publications are now reporting on the issue.
