Google Reader gets a facelift

December 4, 2008 @ 5:55 pm

My Google Reader just refreshed to the newly redesigned Google Reader. Apparently, Google is rolling this update out gradually like it always does, so if you don’t see it yet, just wait and you will very soon!

I like the redesign a lot. Everything looks simpler and the left-side menu is easier to manage. I’m sorry to say this, but it looks like there’s really no need for Helvetireader anymore!

Subscribe to your Facebook notifications; free your inbox

I just turned off my email notifications from Facebook and subscribed to my Facebook notifications via RSS feed instead. Why? So that my inbox stays clean and free of any Facebook bacn/junk.

I don’t know why I never thought of this before but I’m sure glad I did.

Just about everything mildly useful these days has an RSS feed, and Facebook notifications are no exception. Since I use Google Reader so much (I pretty much have that tab open ALL THE TIME) it makes sense that the easiest way for me to keep up-to-date with my friends’ Facebook activities (wall posts, photo comments, friend-to-friend interactions, etc.) is through my RSS reader. No effort required! :)

Thank goodness for RSS feeds!
