Remember Google Reader? The popular RSS app was a great way to follow the day's top stories before being prematurely killed off. Users still mourn the loss of Reader, but Google is now testing a similar function with a new experiment. If you're running Chrome Canary on Android, you might be able to try out Google's new "Follow" button to stay up-to-date on all of your favorite websites (like ours).

 

The feature was initially spotted by Chrome Story back in February, while still early in development. Now that the experiment is official, we know a little bit more about it. The "Follow" button appears in the overflow menu next to the site's name with a blue highlight. Once you're subscribed, you can find updates from your favorite publications under the "Following" section in a new tab.
