Feeds On A Plane!
Google’s alternative to Snakes On A Plane… Rather nifty technology at that, too.
Read your feeds anywhere! On a plane - in a car, at a restaurant (even ones without net connection). Anywhere your lappie can take you! Another great invention from the Google Labs!

Some of the text looks like the typeface from the Ice Age movie logos.

[…] Recently, I read an article by Tim Ferriss on how Scoble reads over 622 feeds each morning! I got to wondering if the readers of Blog Attack wanted to know how I maintain reading over 200 feeds each morning. The key point to how I read mine is that I use Google Reader. Something that I love about google reader is the ability to use well thought out keyboard commands to make scrolling through feeds easier. Another useful feature is being able to read feeds offline! You can read more about that at Techzi. Anyways, heres my strategy on attacking the feeds. […]

That’s pretty cool, seems like Google Gears are going to be popular, but the price tag for the commercial usage is a bit high, I can develop similar software for that money

Open source FTW!
I have no doubt Google Gears will certainly change the way we view our feeds, even if commercial usage is a tad pricey.

There are other uses for this technology…I have utilized the API to develop another technology: a way to view a blog (such as mine: http://www.jasonberlinsky.com/) offline (http://www.jasonberlinsky/view-offline/). It really works!
Some food for thought.

Agreed David!
For some reason my trackback ping didn’t work…

I’ve been having some issues with this feature. It says it’s going to download everything new - up to 2000 posts - but usually only downloads a small fraction of the posts, like 21 out of 200. Is anyone else having this problem?

I think we could all use a little more time to read our feeds.
