Are there other web alternatives of Google Reader?
Bloglines is closing down in a couple of weeks. I've been looking hard for a web-based feed reader that can handle around 400 feeds. I've visited too many links pointing to feed readers that have now discontinued their service. If I move my feeds to a new reader, I'd prefer that they stay alive for at least a few months.
Any suggestions?

I get "Promoted" tweets all the time on my Twitter feed and the majority of the time, they are just a nuisance as I've specifically selected accounts to follow and I feel like they are infringing on my feed on stuff I actually want to read. I know some have a "Dismiss" option but not all. Is there a way around this?

I find that some RSS feeds are more useful if they were sent to me as email messages instead. Are there any good services that will monitor an RSS feed and send the new posts as email messages?

I'm wondering if there's a way to watch a website for changes, even if the site doesn't have a web feed. Specifically, I'd like to watch various state's court form websites for updated forms. http://www.courts.ca.gov/formnumber.htm So you'll see on that page, a form number (adopt-200), and a date revised (7/1/2010).
I'd like to use IFTTT (or something similar... hopefully I don't have to make my own, but whatever) to notify me if there is a change to any of the forms on that page, and then download the new pdf file.
Any ideas?

Is it possible to use Twitter as a feed reader?
I am not interested in writing messages to other people or giving my opinion on some topic, but I am interested in being updated on some people, websites and so on.
I prefer to not be intercepted by people I know (but this is not so important).

How do I subscribe to a YouTube user’s feed (not playlists, likes, or comments) without a Google account?
E.g.:
https://www.youtube.com/user/$USERNAME/feed
I wish to have it in my normal feed reader. (not second source)

There's a web page that updates once in a while and I would very like to be notified when it is updated, preferably using some sort of feed (such as RSS). Unfortunately, that website itself does not publish any sort of feed for that page.
Is there any service which can provide a feed to an external website? E.g. something that will occasionally probe a specific webpage and if it has changed from the last time, publish a new entry in a dedicated feed.

My shared items feed was private, and I want to make it public, so I decided to remove all it contains.
How can I do this?

I've been using Youtube and Google+ for years now. In the past I've posted comments on Youtube videos with little restraint. Now, unfortunately, my Google+ feed is an embarrassing window into the mind of 16-year-old me.
I don't necessarily want to remove all the comments, but I would like to hide them from my Google+ feed. Is there an easy way to do that? Keep in mind, there's thousands, if not tens of thousands of posts. I also wish to keep posting comments on Youtube videos publicly, but without them appearing on my feed.

I have to monitor a page for changes, but the page has no feeds. I was using Yahoo Pipes to generate a RSS for pages like that. But it is too cumbersome just to check if the main HTML checksum has changed.
Is there a tool that does that for me?

Very often I see my friends are commenting on their friends photos, statuses, etc., but I'm not interested if these interactions are not between my friends (if I don't know both of them). How do I hide it from my news feed once and for all?

Can you recommend a good RSS aggregator that sends regular email digest to me?
I would like to be able to add a few feeds and then, say every day or every week it will send an email containing my list of subscribed articles.
I found Feed My Inbox but there you can do very limited things with a free account.

I write a blog at some site. When I write a new post to that site, is there a way to automatically post it to my WordPress and Blogger blogs as well?
