It's been some months since I last used Google Reader (as well as having posted anything here--blogging can be such a pain). It hasn't changed a whole lot as far as the layout is concerned, but they have added some nifty new features. (Yes, Google is taking over the world!) One new thing is the "blog share" hook-up: share something in Reader and you can link to it on your blog (and using Google's Blogger makes it quite simple--puts a new widget in your layout). You can see it off to the right above the archive listing.
At the moment, I've got a series of tabs showing in my browser (Firefox, by the way): Gmail, Google Reader, Picasa, Google Calendar, and Blogger. It makes for something of an "office app" running in a "Firefox desktop". Throw in several more Firefox Portable instances, and you've got several virtual desktops... as many as you want (depending on how much memory you have--Firefox will gobble it up very nicely: I'm using 170MB right now, but I still have half a gig free, so no big)... ooo, look, a feed update...
