Welcome to 2.0, part 2: Google Reader

So I recently learned (a few years too late) that the way to keep up with a 1000 pounds of RSS is to use a news reader. Actually, that’s not true .. it’s just that I didn’t enjoy using the client-based readers I tried. Server side sounds better, less intrusive than an email gateway and keep all the subscriptions in one place.

Google Reader is an improvement, but I still feel some “friction” using it. Luckily while test driving Google Reader I found an O’Reilly article about how to use AJAX to build an RSS Reader. Custom RSS readers … an essential part of modern lifehacking?
