Powering Down Google Reader
We have just announced on the Official Google Blog that we will soon retire Google Reader (the actual date is July 1, 2013). We know Reader has a devoted following who will be very sad to see it go. We’re sad too. There are two simple reasons for this: usage of Google Reader has declined, and as a company we’re pouring all of our energy into fewer products. We think that kind of focus will make fo
The Android Google Reader app is here!
Posted by Peter Baldwin, Software Engineer It’s been a long time coming, but the official Google Reader app for Android is finally here. Let’s jump into the features, shall we? The app supports all the basics you’d expect like unread counts, friends, sharing, liking, and starring, but it also has a whole lot more, including: Multiple accounts Synced preferences Full subscription features (subscrib
A welcome and a look back
Posted by Mihai Parparita, Software Engineer The Reader team was saddened to hear that Bloglines will be shutting its doors on October 1. Bloglines was a pioneer in the feed reading space, and for Web 2.0 in general. We know that nothing will be quite like Bloglines in the hearts of its users, but if you're looking for another online feed reader, we encourage you to give Reader a shot. All you nee
Folder and tag renaming
Posted by Wiktor Gworek, 20% task force (Krakow, Poland) Last year we announced that we wanted to hear your wish list for features in Google Reader, and one of most highly requested features was the ability to rename folders and tags. Today we are rolling out this feature with a little bit of Polish help from Krakow. You can rename folders and tags on the settings page: And you can also edit these
A flurry of features for feed readers
Posted by Brian Shih, Product Manager Since our last big launch, we've been thinking about ways to help our users better share, discover, and consume content in Reader. Today, I'm happy to announce several new features that we hope will further improve the way you use Reader. Send to... We've made it easier to share posts you like to Blogger, Twitter, Facebook, and more, with our new "Send to" fea
Attack of the interns: recommendations and drag-and-drop
Posted by Steve Goldberg, Engineering Manager One of the great things about Reader, and feed readers in general, is that they let you follow sites much more efficiently than you could just by visiting them directly. This means that once you get into the flow of it, you can subscribe and keep track of many more sites than before. The problem then becomes: what should you subscribe to? For example,
"We found it!"
Posted by Mihai Parparita, Software Engineer Here's a search box: Doesn't seem all that special, does it? Most Google sites have it. But let's look at where it is: That's right, search is finally in Google Reader. Now you can find that that apricot recipe you came across a few months ago and now have a craving for. Or perhaps you'd like to search for "ipod" so that you can read at once all the pos
Feed Your Television
Posted by Mihai Parparita, Software Engineer Earlier this year, I acquired a Nintendo Wii. As I was recovering from Wii elbow, I began to explore the capabilities of the Opera-based Internet Channel. It occurred that Reader may be a lot of fun on the Wii, especially with many photo and video feeds. Some weekend hacking confirmed my suspicions, and the rest of the team also seemed to think it'd be
Some of our engineers don't work at Google
Posted by Nick Baum, Product Manager One of the most useful aspects of feed readers is how easy they make it to keep track of industry news. Which in my case means using Google Reader to read about... Google Reader. For example, I subscribe to the Google Blogsearch for "Google Reader" (which has a feed) so I know whenever someone writes about our product. In the TV show 24, everything is not as it
