... build my Google Reader, open and ...

Almost since launch, many have rightly loved and appreciated Google Reader. He is really good, and over the years it only gets better. True, quite slowly. And not everything that I would like to see in it is added by the developers. For example, someone does not want to see mention of Microsoft or FAS. Or you want to see the favicon site. Or tired of clicking "update" to see records appeared from the last update. Or someone dreams of more convenient management from the keyboard. Now it has become more real!


I present to you my small project: Open Google Reader . It uses the older brother's API and works at the same address. He is slender, smart, and ready to fulfill all your desires.

This is user javascript (although some call such greasemonkey scripts). It replaces the native Google Reader interface with its own, but leaves it easy to switch back. It is quite simple to customize to fit your needs, although you will have to do this in code. Yes, this is a relatively geek tool, and you need to edit the script file to configure it.

Features

• minimalistic interface
• favicons for sites
• very flexible filtering system
• easily customizable hotkeys (and Russians too)
• instant download, even on a PDA
• read everything? You can force a renewal of all subscriptions.
• The tag shows the tags assigned by the author.
• the number of unread entries is visible even in a very narrow tab
• newly added entries immediately appear at the end of the list
• hotkeys open links in background tabs (with shifta - not in background)
• hot key, you can open the first link in the record
• the spacebar is smarter, more comfortable to watch the big pictures

Potentially unpleasant features

• if you want settings, it's better to know CSS or javascript
• if you are used to seeing only the headers and expanding only interesting entries, you will have to write a script (although this is not difficult)
• sorting sections by time are written in code with logical values ​​for me (correct - in code)
• no list of subscriptions, it is assumed that you are reading everything in a continuous stream
• In general, everything is done by the programmer for the programmer :)
