Thanks James, I'm still a fan of your ideas! It was great working with you and I'm glad we got the chance to meet in person. I still think feeds are an important part of the future of news and information on the web, people just didn't seem ready to graze yet. :) I hope we stay in touch in the future.

Mike, I'm a bit late in hearing this news and just wanted to wish you the best of luck in future. It was great meeting you during my trip to Boston and I know that whatever you do in future you'll make a success of it.

You've been a terrific supporter and I've always appreciated your counsel and feedback regarding Grazr. I feel lucky that we had such passionate and engaged users. I really am sorry that the news radars will stop working, I know how hard you worked on them.

Dear Mike,

I was shattered reading the news about Grazr. I remember I started playing with the widget in its early days, using it to embed stuff relevant to the topics I blogged about. When you took Grazr to the next level by implementing GrazrScript, I gratefully followed along. I too remember long sessions chatting with you about the potential of Grazr. All of the RSS news radars I built since are in fact a showcase of the genius that you are.

There's a kind of void now, because in this stage I'm not aware of other tools that come close to what Grazr offered. Enough of that sad side of the story.

Mike, there's a bright future ahead of you. I hope you will find a new passion that enamors you as much as Grazr did.
My sincere best wishes for you and your dear ones.

Hi Mike. Very kind of you to mention me. I still think Grazr is a terrific piece of work, even without the soon to be dropped extra facilities. I wish you well and, if I'm ever in your neck of the woods, I'll buy you a meal. Of course, if you ever come to London (UK), be sure to let me know you're coming.
