Google Reader creates a public page for each account, and everything you mark to share gets posted there. On the same toolbar as the “Add tags” link is a link marked “Share”. Clicking one opens all the posts you’ve tagged with that tag.
Once you hit “Save”, scroll down to the bottom in the left-hand sidebar and you’ll see all your tags with little “sale tag” icons next to them. ⌄ Scroll down to continue reading article ⌄ You can enter as many as you like, separated by commas. Clicking this will open a text field to enter tags into. But there’s another, distinct tagging interface in Reader that works more like we’ve come to expect tagging to work.Īt the bottom of each post in a feed, there’s an “Add feed” link (it will say “Edit feed” if you’ve already tagged a post). You might have already noticed that Google Reader calls the folders you’ve created “tags” when you look at them in the “Settings”.
(A neat little fading alert at the top tells you it’s working.) Tagging To add more feeds into a folder, simply select the folder’s name from the “Feed settings…” drop-down while reading the feed again, it will be moved into the folder. A pop-up will prompt you to enter a name for your new folder once you click ok, the new folder will be created and the feed will be moved into it. To create a folder, click on any feed and select “New folder” from the “Feed settings…” drop-down at the top right. (Google is inconsistent in its use of “folders” and “tags”, often treating them as the same thing, but since foldering and tagging appeal to distinct mindsets, it’s effective to talk about them as two separate things.) Foldering Google Reader offers two effective ways to wrangle your feeds into order: folders and tags. Here’s what you need to do to become a real Google Reader power user. If you’ve already gotten started with Google Reader, you’re probably ready for some advanced tips and tricks to make better use of this rather full-featured RSS client.
