Nowadays if we want to check updates from our Google+'s circles, we need to open their stream one by one. Of course it's serious problems because it takes lots of time, moreover if we have many friends to followed.

But unfortunately RSS feeds are not officially supported by Google+ yet. That's bad of course.

RSS feed subscribe option is still on the process of developing Google+ project with another service like API, media player plug in and everything in between. But we can try a service that turns a stream into an RSS feed using third party applications.
