My Blog Reading Life Just Got Easier!

Official Google Reader Blog: “We found it!”
The Google Reader Team just improved my experience reading blogs and following various RSS feeds - again. They did it this time by adding search.
Go figure, Google added search.
Well, it is unique in that it lets me search through the many feeds that I already follow, not just any feed or the whole Net. So, when I’ve been tracking valuable information, up to this point, I’d have to star it or bookmark the site and then come back. Now I can track it with Google Reader and then just come back and search at my convenience.
Nice work!
UPDATE: A few days ago I also unsubscribed from Robert Scoble’s blog. Removing that congestion has been a huge relief. As awesome as he’s been to follow over the past few years, including being one of the first to mention Google Reader and getting me to try it, it’s a wise move (for me) at this point because I think he’s turned into a shill. (Cheap shot? Maybe. Get his attention? Probably not. Improve the blogosphere by letting people make up their own minds, via transparency? Definitely.)
