what do you think? i was hoping for more, newer features. and it seems a little bugging. but i’m glad they switched it over.
I wrote a mini-essay on the train about what I thought but it didn’t get posted over. Thanks G+ Android app. Short version: surprised they got rid of some of their old sharing tools (e.g., following users) but it’s probably for the best as they were under-utilized. I think G+ integration is a good idea. When I actually tried Reader last night, though, it was really slow. Maybe it was other things happening on the computer.
I hope it works. There haven’t been many good choices in the RSS reader world as of late. In my new job it’s even more important. I inherited an email account where 2/3rds of the messages were subscriptions to email lists. It was a lot of noise. I’ve unsubscribed and been able to use Reader and RSS to keep on top of those subscriptions I really want without having them clog up the email inbox.
I was waiting for this integration. I like fewer options (the “cleaner” look) because I rarely used them. I will develop check it out more just to see how it works (or doesn’t).
