Bloglines rolls out new features including full site previews

Bloglines 2-pane view
Web-based RSS reader Bloglines has rolled out three new features, two of which continue to blur the boundary between RSS readers and the rest of the web. The first update is a new "save" button that lets you set aside articles for future reference. This is different than the existing "pin" button because "save" lets you add a comment to a post and send it to a folder for archival purposes.

The second update lets you use a Photo Widget to view large thumbnails from Flickr feeds, giving you one less reason to click away from your RSS reader. Honestly, once you've got a good list of feeds, you can easily spend hours "surfing the web," without ever leaving Google Reader or Bloglines. But sometimes you need to see an article the way it looks on its original website, and that brings us to the third update.

Bloglines has aded a new "preview" option to the 3-pane view. This will essentially load a complete website inside of Bloglines, letting you view a blog post in context, complete with embedded videos, images, and advertisements.

In order to access the new features, you'll need to login to the beta version of Bloglines.

Graveyard Shift has at least 15 levels, and it might even have some secret stages I haven't unlocked yet. They key to getting good at Graveyard Shift is learning to use ...
