Back to the future: two years of Google Chrome
Watching the 1985 classic Back to the Future last night, I was struck by how much things can change with time. The main character Marty McFly travels 30 years back in time, only to find that his house hadn’t been built yet, skateboards hadn’t been invented and nobody had ever heard rock ‘n roll.Looking back today on Chrome’s second anniversary, it’s amazing to see how much has changed in just a short time. In August 2008, JavaScript was 10 times slower, HTML5 support wasn’t yet an [...]

Email overload? Try Priority Inbox
Posted by Doug Aberdeen, Software EngineerPeople tell us all the time that they’re getting more and more mail and often feel overwhelmed by it all. We know what you mean—here at Google we run on email. Our inboxes are slammed with hundreds, sometimes thousands of messages a day—mail from colleagues, from lists, about appointments and automated mail that’s often not important. It’s time-consuming to figure out what needs to be read and what needs a reply. Today, we’re happy to [...]

From my Google Reader Trends: "From your 331 subscriptions, over the last 30 days you read 9,475 items, clicked 432 items, starred 0 items, shared 8 items, and emailed 0 items. Since May 27, 2010 you have read a total of 29,526 items."
Unfortunately that doesn't take into account my use of Reader in my Google Account, before I changed to Full Accounts by end of May.

Fullscreen and more!
As Google Reader is all about reading, we thought we should give our users a chance to maximize their screen space whenever possible... thus fullscreen mode was born. You can toggle the fullscreen mode through the 'f' key. Additionally, you can use 'shift + u' to show and hide the navigation panel so you can easily change what you're reading without leaving fullscreen mode. Eagle-eyed viewers might have also noticed we've added a new category to the trends page: clicked trends - now you can [...]
