I saw your post in my google reader list and decided to write a comment just to say, loud and clear: NO. I don’t want to live in a world where shared articles act like spam.

Hi, there are several ways to publish your reader ‘finds’. I personally publish several tags to my two blogs (one tag per blog). That way i can target the feed.

Another vote for Jim Kloss and Adrian's seasonal wish to get Shared Stuff integrated within Reader.

I use the same heavy-handed kludge to be able to add my comment to items and then Share them via Google Reader.

(And I'm sure that Google Bookmarks ought to fit into the equation somewhere...)

Well, yes, this could be a new way to start a viral chain. We saw chain mails, chain instant messages and chain what not… Why not this? The only thing I would hate to see happen, is Google forced to do a Yahoo! with you being required to click on a verification link to prove you are human and not a bot!

The kludge I use to get around that Adrian is that I go ahead and use Google Shared Stuff to flag non-RSS items as I surf. I subscribe to my own Goolge Shared Stuff RSS feed. Then when I'm in Google Reader, I click to share my own Shared Stuff with others.

But I completely agree. I wish Google would just take the functionality of Google Shared Stuff and integrate it into Google Reader so external-to-RSS-feeds things could be easily shared via Google Reader.

I like Google Reader shared items. By why doesn't Google connect with Google Shared Stuff http://www.google.com/s2/sharing/stuff

It's confusing having two places, which won't talk to each other...

i thought that this feature should b important as rss subcribsion, cuz ,you may not read all items of your subs, but most of all,you must have read the items befrore you shared them

Shared it out, and it also ends up on my facebook profile.

Shared in a Google Reader shared page that acts as a community blog of sorts for Whole Wheat Radio folks. Extremely handy for me since I simply "share" any items from the various feeds I follow, and let the Google Reader shared "blog" page do the rest.

http://feeds.feedburner.com/WWR2 (which points to the Google Reader shared items at http://www.google.com/reader/shared/user/14006799895473078403/state/com.google/broadcast )

BTW, I picked up your entry because I subscribe to "Items shared by David VanAmburg" via his Google Reader shared items.

Viral indeed!

I shared it, and I have hundreds of friends in Google Reader. It’ll be interesting to see if that causes a passalong effect.
