I don't know.) <BR/><BR/>I would really like Google Reader to have the Safari RSS feature for deleting old posts, since I keep switching machines. And it is slightly annoying to keep using the Mark all as read option, because it renders the Google Reader Trends statistics useless...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-54838120089427381702007-08-13T17:34:00.000-07:002007-08-13T17:34:00.000-07:00i think it's possibly awesome, but like so many go...i think it's possibly awesome, but like so many google services, nothing is guaranteed (no problems here on that note).

But if you have 1,000 posts to read, it's nice to have some prioritization unless you want to spend the whole day keeping up with your feeds.Alex Chituhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02618542750965508582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-52004865785353250692007-08-12T14:04:00.000-07:002007-08-12T14:04:00.000-07:00What if you normally read everything?
