It's a great way to pass around the best of the best. I’ve been sharing for quite a while on my blog sidebar. It’s a great way to pass around the best of the best.

It definitely will make me think about what to share and what to star. I think Darren differentiates well between them. Share to, well... share and Star for further reflection later. Sue,

I JUST started playing with this new feature. It definitely will make me think about what to share and what to star. I think Darren differentiates well between them. Share to, well… share and Star for further reflection later.

I think this sounds like a great feature! Certainly it will require more reading but, as others have said, having others scan articles for you has appeal. I would like others to sort through the multiforous and tell me what I should read. I don’t use google talk much, but I wish I did. I think this sounds like a great feature!

Except that I do use Gtalk. Now one thing I do with Google Reader that I've found to work very well is to SHARE the posts I like (they're displayed on my blog as well) and to STAR the posts I will likely write about.

You are the only person on my list that shares. :) I pretty much only use Gtalk when I'm hiding out. If that list grows I might have to reconsider. So far I’m safe.

Probably relates to the setting they are using. Also looks like it is adding peoples accounts automatically to Google Reader provided they have a Gmail account and Reader. So I have people shared items appearing in my Shared Items section of reader that I don't talk, and have never talk to, using Gtalk. John it looks like the key will be if your Reader account is set up with a Gmail account which yours probably isn't. This has definitely added a new twist to the whole sharing concept and may well impact on how we even share the links on our blog. Not sure but it will be an interesting few days working out the pros and cons of the impact. Shared tags work differently from Sharred items so another interesting dimension is added. Graham-- it would be really good if use Google Reader to create our blogroll for our blog like John Larkin does. While the shared reader is nice -- with John's blog he is able to add the code into his side bar so has a really nice looking blogroll that changes as he adds and removes subscriptions. Stephen - I am thinking that the connection will be more that your Google Reader account sign is a gmail account rather than just people who you communicate with using Gtalk. But as the day progresses I will get a better indication. As I have commented above this could have some really interesting impacts on how people share the items and where their focus will be with sharing.

I have long wanted to see a connection between people and resources. I don't use Google Talk now but I may start it up to see the results. This is very nteresting.

It was time to dump the old-fashioned blogroll and show at a glance what was currently catching my eye. Now what I decide to share is directly influenced by the fact it is fulfilling the prior role of my blogroll. Like John, my shared GReader items are now in my blog sidebar.
