My current RSS Reader for the while has been updated to include search. It’s not something I totally needed before but I am sure I can now find use for. Assuming they don’t dump your older posts after a while, the search can be a very invaluable tool. Another update which was not mentioned was that the limit for unread item notification went up the 1000+ now. Previously, if you had more than 100 unread items it would say (100+) and now the figure is bumped to 1000. This is pretty useful for sites like digg as now I can really know how much I have yet to read, up to 1000 at least.

  1. I don’t use Google Reader but you’d think that the world’s largest search engine would have included search as the first feature of Google Reader. I guess Google keeps things in beta cause when they add something so obvious, we can’t bitch cause “well it was in beta.”

  2. I just want drag and drop functionality in Greader and Gmail! Bloglines just needs to work on speed for the beta, otherwise I think I’d jump ship again.
