I will try this, looks interesting.

Btw, how about an article dedicated to wallpaper changers? I am currently using Wallpaper Juggler and I am liking it. I was using John’s Background Switcher but it uses too much resources since it was a .net application.

@Question: as pointed by brad, despite the fact that feedly is an extension, it does not save any state on the client. So you can install it on multiple machines and room from one machine to the other and everything will always be up to date.

This sounds really cool, but would I have to manually put all my feeds in it that I have on my igoogle pages? I’ll probably try it either way.

This is the reader I’ve been waiting for! I’ve been using it for almost a week (after being a long-time dedicated NetVibes user) and it’s the best.

To me it’s like reading a newspaper. I can connect to all the information I want through one simple interface, without having to visit a whole lot of different sites. And for the sites that only have excerpts in their feeds, Feedly will open the whole article in a mini window on the Feedly page. No need for new tabs, windows, etc.

I have been using it on several computers and I would like if they could somehow sync read/unread info, etc.

I’ll admit that I haven’t installed or used this add-on yet… But what am I missing? Why a Firefox add-on and not just a website that everyone can access and set as their browser’s home page? (I am a Firefox user, but I don’t want to set this up at work and at home).

And that, Jeff, will be exactly why Feedly, no matter how much Shankar raves about this freebie, is not used by some people.

Adding labels to my greader is a no no…I have those labels set up for a reason and I’d rather not have them messed with.

Shankar,

Very detailed explanation about Feedly. After seeing this article, I installed it and test it. So far, I’m liking what I see. Thanks a lot.

I stand corrected you hit recommend and it does show up on your shared page. Makes Feedly even better. I recommend this add-on.
