Google Reader was an RSS/Atom feed aggregator operated by Google. It was created by Chris Wetherell and launched on October 7, 2005. It's used for reading news, by subscribing some feeds or searching. Just like subscribing newspaper, but it's free, you can subscribe any feed you want. But now Google Reader has been closed since 1st July 2013.
This was the interface of Google Reader
As you can see, the feeds can be foldered, categorized as the user wants. The interface is just like Gmail with subscriptions as inbox. It can connect to websites which serving news in daily. As an example shown in the picture, Lifehacker is a website. So the use of Google Reader is to manage news or feed that you read everyday/in your daily. Rather than opening so much tabs on your browser, Google Reader manages it into list than you can manage into folders.
