I’ve imported my feeds into Google Currents, since it can also be used to read regular news, not just feeds, which I do, anyway. Trying it out now, hopefully Google will be improving it, if they want the reader users to stay with Google.
Update: So far Google Currents sucks for feeds. Totally unintuitive layout and gestures, does not show new feeds (or I cannot find where it does), the formatting of several items is so poor, I give up and go to the original site. Switching back to Google Reader until something better comes along.
No. I’ve seen Newsblur and Netvibes mentioned but I’ve never used them. Some discussion in

Meh, I guess we have a few months to see people’s reports on the alternatives.
Don’t waste time on researching today’s best feed reader. That data will be obsolete in 3 months. - LifeProTips @ Reddit
At least in the case of NewsBlur we’ll have to wait to see people’s reports, since they are being hammered by all the Reader refugees.
i’m happy w/ feedly and haven’t been asked for money yet (have only used for 2 days)
