Sharing feed items with Google Reader
Development on the somewhat unpopular Google Reader doesn't seem to go at a furious pace, but every couple months they
drop a new feature into it and usually it's at least marginally cool. Yesterday was such an event, and the feature

option, and when you enable it two links are generated: One that your friends can click on to subscribe to those items
in Reader, and one for an Atom feed that they can use in any feed reader. It also works for starred items. You can also
do the same for your starred items. On top of that, there's also a new "clip" feature similiar to yesterday's

Style that lets you add a live list of your shared items to any web page by pasting a snippet of code on your site.
You can customize the box's title, color scheme (you have eight predefined choices), and number of items shown.
