Last Week on Google Reader
Google Reader, the most powerful feed-reader, also got the most important update. For quite some time after graduating from Google Labs, the Reader remained the strange Google Application without the famous Google Search! Now, there is a search box at the top of the page and you can now search all the feed items or the posts inside a feed.
The search is very good but it is the slowest search provided by Google. Sooner or later, Google will hopefully improve the performance of Google Reader Search.
As you can see from the screen shot above, the Google Reader icon has not detached the Google Lab icon yet. But, they removed the lab icon from the "Loading" message.
The Reader also got a minor update: it can now count toward 1000. Before that, it only show 100+ for any feed with more than 99 unread items. I think 1000 should be very enough for feed item count since any number larger than that will not be useful to the user anymore.
Until then...
Justin
