In case you haven’t heard, Google Reader went Social.
Summary: Add people to your gmail chat/gtalk and you’ll be able to see their Reader’s shared items and they’ll be able to see yours. It’s a great way to not miss interesting blog posts (specially “niche posts” that don’t hit the digg frontpage) and to make sure you get the “news that matters” to you.
My contact, if you want to add me to is: luis.rei@gmail.com
My friends list is currently populated by a few fellow Prt.Sc bloggers and Robert Scoble and it’s already great! I hope I can get a few more people in.
This feature was added in a controversial manner: without informing the users that items they had shared with select people were about to be shared with all their contacts. If this happens to be a problem for you, google has posted some “fixes“.
