Maybe if you're traveling, then it would be useful...

I love Google Reader. It also has offline feature, but never really used. We are on the same boat. I love Google Reader. It also has offline feature, but never really used.

I use the share feature quite regularly. You can tag a feed and than share all the feed belonging to this tag. So I have a page on my blog where you can read these feeds. Best of all this also enables your readers to read contents that might be blocked in certain countries. Another feature is the search through your feeds. That really helps finding articles you remeber but that you haven't marked. The only disadvantage is the delay. Sometimes it's more than an hour until certain feeds are published in GoogleReader. Other Readers are faster in that aspect. I am a great fan of Google Reader. I use the share feature quite regularly. You can tag a feed and than share all the feed belonging to this tag.
