Many RSS users have lamented the death of Google Reader, so some of these users may be happy to see Google building RSS support directly into Chrome. Google used to develop and maintain an RSS reader called Google Reader, but eventually put the platform out to pasture in 2013. Google Chrome aims to be secure, fast, simple and stable. RSS feeds are not directly human readable but are made to be easily parsed by various readers. One of these sacrifices is that it, unlike other major browsers, includes no built-in RSS reader. Many websites that publish content, including HotHardware, offer RSS feeds. RSS is a method of delivering a web feed that users can follow in any compatible reader of their choice. It actually aggregates between a number of RSS. The integrated RSS reader in Chrome for Android displays an RSS feed on the browser’s new tab page, so we may see a similar feed appear in the new tab page of Chrome for desktop at some point in the future. FocusReader is the newest RSS reader on the list and a bit of a wildcard. Nonetheless, Andria Porter Felt, a Director of Engineering at Google for Chrome, confirmed in a tweet that this new context menu option is the beginning of a full-fledged RSS reader built into Chrome for desktop. The new option is titled “Follow site.” This new listing in the context menu appears to the be the only functioning part of the integrated RSS feature, as the associated feed isn’t currently able to display any content. After updating his Chromebook to ChromeOS 106, Kevin Tofel of About Chromebooks discovered a new option in the Chrome context menu.
