I honestly don't miss the old design that much, but I direly miss the shared aspect of it. This looks interesting though, maybe I"ll give it a try, I'd like to move away from google stuff if I can these days...
Does anyone know if there is a Greasemonkey script or user stylesheet that lets you get the old Google Reader UI back? I didn't use the sharing features much, but I hate the visual aspect of the new redesign.
Sure, I'd love to check this out!<p>Could you please run a demo with a link on your main page(did I miss it?) I don't think having users upload their info just to see a demo is good practice.
I submitted nothing to the landing page and got:<p><pre><code> Traceback (most recent call last):

I thought some people would be interested in a way to get the data out of all those ugly JSON files where Google put all your old social data from Google Reader, so here's Good Old Google Reader. Still alpha, but this is what I've got so far. Any thoughts? I made most of it yesterday, so there's still a lot of room for improvement.
I switched from bloglines.com to google reader years ago. I went back and checked it out after the redesign disaster and it looks quite good. I think I'm switching back to that.
