Google Reader变得更象RSS浏览器了

虽然google reader的界面不错,比较简洁大方美观,但因为订阅甚多所以非常不习惯它将所有的文章堆砌在一起的阅读方式。所以一直坚持用bloglines。两家公司都给对手带来了很大的压力,市场竞争激烈,用户收益最多。最近google reader和bloglines均动作频繁。

1、今天google reader看起来和以前有点不一样了,现在开始你可以在一个页面里浏览单个feed下的全部文章,而不象以前那样每次只显示一篇文章。
可以将类似的feed组织在一个目录下或者按标签展示。
可以展开阅读或者只浏览标题。
在展开阅读时,google默认所有在屏幕范围内出现的文章你已经全部阅读了。
显示一个feed下还有多少文章未读,最多100。(bloglines为200)
总之,借鉴了很多bloglines的优点,更象一个rss浏览器了,难说我以后不会喜欢它。

2、不过bloglines也有不断的细节调整。
现在左侧的feed框架换到后台刷新,这样网络不是很好时左侧不会出现长时间的大片空白。刷新时框架底部会有灰色背景的提示,同时会告诉你刚才又多了几篇文章,有新的帖子的地方会有一个短暂的黄色指示符闪动。并且刷新时间也缩短了,省去了你老是去按热键“r‘的麻烦。

The Wizard Behind the Curtains

You might have noticed a few fancy little changes we’ve made to your feed tree on the left pane today. You’ll like them even more when you learn what’s behind the scenes!

  • We no longer update the entire left pane when the unread or “kept as new” counts change. Now the counts update in place with a fading yellow indicator. The result is a faster, more pleasant way to cruise through your feeds, especially for those quick on the hotkeys.
  • We’ve decreased the time between automatic updates to your unread counts so you don’t have to press the “r” hotkey quite so often.

We hope you enjoy the changes. As always, if you have any feedback, feel free to let us know either via our contact form or by putting up a blog post containing the phrase “bloglines freedbacking”.
