parislemon: John Herrman of BuzzFeed: According to data from the BuzzFeed Network, a set of tracked partner sites that collectively have over 300 million users, Google Reader is still a significant source of traffic for news — and a much larger one than Google+. The above chart, created by BuzzFeed’s data team, represents data collected from August 2012 to today.  Yikes. Did Google just shut down the wrong product? I think shutting down google+ would have been read as a bigger failure though.
