Google Reader for iPhone running on the N810

Posted in Applications, Internet at 10:58 pm by Jonathan Greene

Tonight I learned from Gerry Moth and Matt Stevens that Google Reader has been updated for the iPhone … which of course means it works great on the S60 Platform as well as the Nokia Tablets running the MicroB (mozilla) browser. I tried this tonigh on the N82 using the S60 webkit browser but as soon as I saw it in action I knew I wanted to use the tablet instead.

I shot this quick video on the N82 in my kitchen so I apologize for the out of focus text. I think the point is still quite clear … this is a great way for anyone to enjoy Google Reader on the go!

I’m definitely switching from the standard /m site which only offers a single item at a time. This is MUCH more efficient and works well even over EDGE.

    links from Technoratiне менее, новая версия отлично работает не только с телефонами iPhone, а и с телефонами на платформе Series 60 и интернет-планшетами. Источник:http://www.maemoapps.com

    True, I’ve tried it on my N800 and can say this new version is huge improvement over the old one that showed when you entered the GR site with iPhone User Agent string.

    Anyway, I can more than recommend using display rotation – GR displays nicely when the device is vertical and feels much safer in my hand when commuting through shaky underground, trams, buses or even when walking.

    Funny, that is the first thing I did when I saw the new Google Reader for iPhone site too. I fired up the N810 and this is the best implementation to use on this device as I find it much faster and better formatted than the mobile site. Great minds think alike, huh :)

    @Matt great minds clearly think alike! This enhancement has just made my commute considerably more productive

    Too bad you can’t read only a specific folder. I have lots of heavy feeds that I don’t want to read on the tablet.

    I am reading my feeds by folder … bookmarking the folder seems to be impossible for the moment ,but you can switch back to your feed list, choose a folder and when the list expands, choose it again to view a tag.
