Google Reader folders rawk

Google reader foldersI’ve been using Google Reader pretty successfully for the past while now, but up until a few days ago I was just putting my “daily” feeds into it, because, well, mostly because I didn’t know that I could put things into folders.  My PC newsreader app is organized into 5 or so folders, roughly sorted by theme - there’s the “daily” one for feeds that I like to review each day, a “dev” one, a “biz” one, a “veg” one, etc.  Once I knew I could have folders in Google Reader (so the whole “river of news” thing would still follow a theme), I moved my dev folder over, and then things got even better.

You can assign a feed to more than one folder.

Oh sweet malloc(), how nice that is.  I haven’t actually done it yet (the above screenshot is just for demonstration purposes), but I feel better knowing that I could, at any time, read a development blog every day if I so chose to do so.

Thanks, Google!  Now, about sorting news by date with the newest at the bottom…
