How To Filter Google Reader
Google Reader is a great product. It loads fast and is easy to use. However the filter isn’t ideal. “How to filter Google Reader” can be accomplished in two ways:
- The “stock” solution Google provides is a keyword filter you apply when the browser window is open. For FilterMyRSS we don’t see value in this approach. If one is wanting to filter feeds, why bring in the entire feed first, then filter. Wouldn’t it be much easier to filter the feed before it is displayed?
- The second method requires FilterMyRSS feed filter (obviously). By using this RSS filter you can insert the feed URL, type in your keywords and the resultant RSS filter provides only the articles with your keywords.
Although method two does require running your feed through another site, that one time setup far out-weights the annoying task of entering a keyword in the Google Reader EACH TIME you open the reader page.
We hope you feel the same. FilterMyRSS home page.
