I know Google Reader has it's own share of issues, but NNW just deleted my ENTIRE opml (luckily I just yesterday exported it) and I'm out.

As per keyboard shortcuts; I use J, K, and V. I also use the bookmarklet, but the Reader Notifier will pass feed:// to Google Reader (which seems to work OK).

And yea, greader is awesome. Make sure you add the bookmarklet to subscribe, oh and the NEXT bookmark is cool too, you click it and it takes you to a new article, like it loads the site. And they have a layout for the Wii which i use on my browser cause it's easier to browse: http://www.google.com/reader/wii .. go there and press 1 and then 2, it's pretty neat.

It isn't "perfect" but I'll give it a shot. I actually don't mind Google's default style. Installed and now using via Camino. It isn’t “perfect” but I’ll give it a shot.

I see the Camino installation instructions right on the page. I shall give it a try soon. D’oh, I guess I should read more thoroughly! I see the Camino installation instructions right on the page.

Will see how it goes. I have a terrible habit of moving to a new reader when I become overwhelmed with unread items, then subscribing to heaps of feeds again...and.... rinse, lather, repeat :P I got a HTC Hermes last week ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTC_TyTN ) and can use google reader to read my feeds there too. With a few UI tweaks, this windows mobile 6 phone isn't too bad. Couldn't wait for the iPhone with 3G to get here to australia.. anyway, i digress. I’m also trying Google reader out as of yesterday.
