Publishing Feeds from Google Reader

Having lost the ability to publish rss feeds in Google Reader, an alternate method of publishing is needed. The web addresses of published feeds display the label at the end of the url;

  • http://www.google.com/reader/shared/user/03256507980052811175/label/nym

The last ( green ) word in the address can be changed, to access any label applied in Google Reader. The public can view that published feed if they have the url.

Notes cannot be created manually in Google Reader, but full rss feeds from blogs hosted at blogspot.com can be subscribed to and assigned to a folder in Google Reader whose web address displays the name of that folder as a label at the end of that url.

This message was created at http://nymstips.blogspot.com/. It is also published as a shared item from Google Reader, but not in the main Shared item stream.

Sharing to Google+ From Google Reader

Several methods of sharing from Google Reader to Google+;

Send to.

Go to Google Reader Settings, and open the Send To tab. At the bottom of the page you'll see Create a custom link, click on it. enter the following lines of text in the appropriate window;
  • Name ~ Google+
  • URL ~  https://m.google.com/app/plus/x/?content=${title}%20-%20${url}&v=compose&hideloc=1
  • Icon URL ~  http://ssl.gstatic.com/s2/oz/images/favicon.ico
Save.

When you see an item in Google Reader that you would like to share on Google+, look at the bottom bar of the item for Send To. Click on it, and a drop down window will allow you to select Google+.

This does not seem to share photos.

Drag this Share to G+ button to your nav-bar. This does not seem to share photos either.
