A Pioneer Shuts Down

This is truly sad

All versions of Pluck’s RSS readers for Internet Explorer, FireFox and Pluck’s web edition will be discontinued on 1/5/2007. The RSS Readers have served our community of end users well for several years, but with Pluck’s focus in other business areas, the venerable RSS readers are set to be retired from our product line.

Over the next two months, you will have the opportunity to export your RSS feed subscriptions to other RSS readers of your choosing. Please visit the RSS reader support pages for details on how to export your subscriptions and bookmarks for use in other readers.

It’s always hard watching pioneers go down. Pluck was a huge force behind the widespread use of RSS by many of us today.

Whether or not you used the service, you definitely owe them a thank you and a pat on the back…
