Google Reader befriends GTalk

Google Reader allows you to not only centrally receive information from a variety of sources and memorize your favorite records, but it’s just as easy to share what you found with friends or the entire Internet. To do this, there is a typical possibility of sending an email using your account in Gmail, as well as a more interesting and flexible mechanism for publishing marked messages. Moreover, the user can open access to both individual entries (just press the s key when viewing this entry), and to all with a certain label. Published news can then be viewed on a special page, received by subscription or embedded in the widget on your site.

Thus, to view the published records of friends needed to do a lot of unnecessary actions by hand. Now the Friend's shared items item has appeared in the Reader sidebar with open Gmail / GTalk posts from your friends. The settings also added a page with a selection of contacts that you want to see.
