Google Reader have just been linked to Google Talk to offer the possibility to share items with your friends. A new share icon have been added in bottom of each post. All your friends are able to subscribe to your shared items and so read stuff that you like or recommend for reading.
Google is boosting its services with sharing capabilitis and it’s great to see talk integration after Gmail also inside Google Reader. Feature available only in english at the current time.
Once you’ve logged into Reader and been notified of the change, these friends will be able to see your shared items in the Reader left-hand navigation area under “Friends’ shared items”. We’ve provided an option to clear your shared items in case you don’t want your friends to see what you’ve shared in the past. We’ve also added a Settings page so you can choose which friends you see and invite friends who aren’t yet sharing to try it out.
Your friends shared items will be available in the right menu, but there is also a special page for displaying your friend’s shared items with photo and profile information.
