Anyone actively using Google Reader? I've read a few positive things about people here with Bloglines, but have recently been using GR.

Just wondering how well or not it works. Any access to keyboard shortcuts etc...

I just got a Google account to check this out. I got:

JavaScript must be enabled in order for you to use Reader. However, it seems JavaScript is either disabled or not supported by your browser. To use Reader, enable JavaScript by changing your browser options, then try again.

So, no go.

well - that sucks.

I suppose the mobile version would still work though - http://www.google.com/reader/m

Not sure that's really much better than my Nokia E61 with considerable exception in screen size.

How's bloglines on it? Mobile or Full version?

Mobile version squawked:

I had to login again, then I got a page that displays OK. No feeds, of course.

nope.... You can only read and actually not be the order you choose. Bloglines wins there, but GR beats Bloglines in my book on the desktop.

You do know the 770 has its own RSS reader? I have 91 feeds. Not trouble-free -- feeds break and I can't tell if it's the feed or the software.

I definitely caught that - but without a way to sync across other platforms I use (Powerbook, Nokia E61) it won't serve much good...
