Google Reader LogoI’ve tested the Google Reader since it came out but in the beginning it gave me errors while importing my subscriptions, messed up the folders and tags so I continued with my Bloglines.

After the newly upgraded Google Reader I was able to transfer all my subscriptions successfully. Now I’ve completely switched across Google Reader and loving it.

Some functionalities on Google Reader I like to see are:

  • to check numbers of subscriber to individual feed,
  • to show feed description,
  • to have the left hand panel draggable or collapsable,
  • may be improve in iconomy would be great too, like adding favicons to each feeds as they have for Bloglines and Rojo.

I’m sure the developers are improving as we speak cos’ just now I’ve discovered this new feature called “Trends” where you can view the stats of your reading trends by “Last 30 days”, “Time of day” and “Day of week”. It also tells you how much you’ve read in a brief summary as my stats here:

From your 453 subscriptions, over the last 30 days you read 5,008 items, starred 0 items, and shared 15 items.

There are “Reading trends”, “Subscription trends” and “Tags” where the more items a tag has, the bigger it appears. The more of those items you have read, the darker it is. In my case, my tags are my folders.

Seems like you got more control over your reading habits and quite fun checking out neat little stats along the way. Have fun analyzing your “Trends“.
