It’s not Google Reader, but it’s something.<\/p>\n Google Reader is finally back from the dead, sort of. Google Chrome is rolling out with a new “Follow” button that allows users to add a website to a new RSS feed in the browser.<\/p>\n The feature was announced on Friday by Google’s director of engineering, Adrienne Porter Felt, who says that the feature is available on stable versions of Chrome. The RSS feed will appear next to the Discover feed on Chrome’s new tab page.<\/p>\n Starting today, we’re experimenting on Chrome stable with a Following feature. You can choose websites to follow, and their RSS updates will appear on Chrome’s new tab page.
