Google Reader Homepage Module, Take 2

My original Google IG/ Google Reader
module has proved quite popular. I have now updated it so it displays entries separately outside the module. I find this a lot easier to use than the old version.


Those of you with the old version installed will be upgraded automatically. Otherwise, the installation instructions are:

  1. You need to be a Google Reader user (or at least have an account)
  2. Sign into Google IG
  3. Install the IG Developer module as described in http://www.google.com/apis/homepage/guide.html#Dev_Module
  4. Add the module http://www.mackmo.com/ig/reader/1.0/reader.xml
  5. Check the box that says “Inlined”
  6. Note that you can change the sort order, the number of items displayed and if reading it via the module marks it as read in Reader by using the “edit” link in the header.


Update: Now availble via the Google Directory and approved for inline use. Just go to http://www.google.com/ig/directory?q=reader and add it.

Update (7 April 2006): Some recent changes to the Reader API broke my IG module. All is fixed now, so if you have been having problems give it another go.
