Crap. I accidently clicked "ignore" on an invitation from someone in Google reader, but I actually wanted to follow. How do I fix it so I can follow that person??

follow me and I'll ignore you, then I'll try to figure it out..
- Wallace
you can get that person to add you again, or you can search for them by name or add them by email address.
- Jenna Bilotta
you can also look at the list of your followers, find that person and follow them back. you can get to your list of followers from the "sharing settings" page.
- Jenna Bilotta
I didn't get a chance to ignore you, so I'll unfollow and see...

Ok, I figured it out. I went to Google Reader settings - http://www.google.com/reader...

Fwd: Isolating Shared Items in Google Reader - http://wallace.posterous.com/isolati... (via http://friendfeed.com/wallace...)

Several weeks ago I noticed an item shared from Google Reader that displayed only the one item, although that person's shared item feed was active, and that item was displayed further down the list ( chronologically ). This function has potential. Check out this test share; http://www.google.com/reader... and then click on the link to my shared items. There's a difference.

I'm going to take a wild guess and say that Google Contacts has been disconnected from Google Reader. I've been able to follow several people since this problem started, but their names only show on my contacts page. I do get their updates as new comments in my Google Reader, but I have no name to attach to groups. I can like their shared items, and also comment on their shared items and my 'comments' label turns to bold text whenever someone updates ( including myself ).
- Wallace
Maybe you're right. I can't even get to the people I follow list, since the "You are following..." message is not visible.
- Mahendra (SkepticGeek)
All data about followed and followers has disappeared from Contacts. It was there yesterday so I suspect Wallace is right about the disconnect.

Lot's of people have been trying to use GR as their new social network... this outage (with silence) does not bode well. I fear we'll lose many we gained. It's one thing to be buggy or lack some functionality, but a different thing all together to lose almost all functionality and not keep your users informed. Have we learned nothing?

I've set up a new Google Account ( wallace.lockhart2@gmail.com ) to try and solve this problem on my end. My new profile page ( http://www.google.com/profile... ) is up, and I've imported all my contacts from my old account ( wallace.lockhart@gmail.com ). My followers/followees are viewable now in my GR so far comments are functional. If someone could visit the new profile, I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

Wallace, I still see your old account but I can't comment on your page. I can comment on most others. Does it have anything to do with groups?
- Myrna
Just use http://www.google.fr/reader/ instead of http://www.google.de/reader to move from German to French.
- Mahendra (SkepticGeek)
Myrna/Wallace: Think so. Because in order to comment, the user should have added you to a group.
- Mahendra (SkepticGeek)
Myrna, I have removed everyone from groups on my old page. I still have links to those contacts in GR, and periodically try to add them. No success yet. This may be link rot. Rapid link rot. Here's my new shared items link; http://www.google.com/reader... Until Google gets this straightened out, I"ll be sharing from one page and pushing feeds out of the other. Oh well, it's free. Thanks for your concern, patience and help folks.
- Wallace
Wallace, can't you just go to the French or German page and continue from there. It's the same and I can comment and like everything.
- Myrna
I tried the German and Polish pages, and both behaved as the English (US) page. But never mind that! I just discovered that I can follow my old tagged feeds that I push out of my old account and continue to post in my new account! That means I don't need two accounts! Woo hoo...!

Chris, thanks for the update! I wonder if yours was an extra-special case though, since if the specific use case of someone you're following adding their "Like" stream to Google Profile was the issue, then folks like Louis Gray would also have been affected, since he follows the same people and many more (I believe) than all of us who had the problem.
- Mahendra (SkepticGeek)
Yeah I'm not sure but I am glad they came back with a response.. I'll be even happier when I can get my comments out to back them up or use externally.

- Richard ¿digame? Walker
Richard, I understand.. trust me I tried to do the same thing about general Google support, then I realized it's wrong. Louis is "just" a popular blogger, dumping on him isn't going to help Google's problems (i.e. they should know about it). Louis is doing a great job fostering open communication and the sharing of ideas, dumping on him will only hurt this effort. Goggle needs to hear from more than one source. Anyway thanks for clarifying, I hope you understand my position!

Be careful, I just spent 42 hours without access to all my Reader shares, notes, comments etc (http://ff.im/7JFoG) .. kept getting "please try again in a few seconds"..151,200 is a lot of seconds to be waiting.. & still no official word from the Reader team, will it happen again?

For more efficient curated content we need more people to tag their Google Reader items and make the tags public, and a place with a catalog of Reader public tags, where you can find them and subscribe to them- and ideally, a TagFeed that works like FriendFeed - http://friendfeed.com/google-...
""cool" via Recommendations" is a Google Reader feed that pushes out all sorts of wacky stuff. I'm thinking 'cool' is the tag that 'Recommendations' uses in their Google Reader. The question is, "Who is Recommendations, and do they have any 'serious' feeds published in Google Reader?"
- Wallace
yes, i think that is the case. I looked up at the url. it is https://www.google.com/reader...: I think someone who calls himself "Recommendations" tags his shares as cool and has made that tag public- if everyone does this- i think we can enjoy the reader much more.
- nat bas
http://www.google.com/reader... - something similar, but i tag rather indiscriminately- if i like something, i tag it.
- nat bas
And rather pretentious- http://www.google.com/reader... and also http://www.google.com/reader... and more. I think more people should share reader items through public tags. You then know what to expect from a particular person's feeds.
- nat bas
I subscribed to 'Conciousness', looks good! I push about 50 feeds out of Google Reader, tagged by topics that I'm interested in.

50 feeds? That is amazing! How do people like me get to know where your feeds are? I have just ten- and they are public as a Google Doc- http://docs.google.com/View...

Glad to get feeds about it through you. Thanks, again.(minutes later)- I've trouble subscribing to it. They don't show up in my Reader. Will try again later this evening.

nat bas; armenia notes was my first effort, where I tagged items in the Google Reader window. At that time Armenia was suffering a full scale media blackout following a controversial election.

American Civil Liberties Union: This group opposes virtually all post-9/11 national security measures enacted by U.S. government. It supports open borders, has rushed to the defense of suspected terrorists and their abettors, and appointed former New Left terrorist Bernardine Dohrn to its Advisory Board. this group is getting funding from George Soros... and even they are against this. what the hell is going on? who is running the show? at least Bush was upfront with what he was doing

Noah, do ACLU expose, so we can be educated. ACLU has the right concept, but if it is harming Liberty, something needs to be done to fix them!

How Chad Ochocinco Plans to Tweet During NFL Games - http://mashable.com/2009...
Ochocinco says he’ll soon launch a contest, in which he’ll select one of his followers each week, fly them to the Bengals game, and work out hand signals so he can have them update his Twitter account while he’s on the field. The result will be Ochocinco tweets during the game that don’t technically violate the NFL’s policy of no cell phones during competition.

MF/Kol = I live in Kingston on Thames. It's OK apart from the traffic (continually gridlocked) and the shops (girls just lurve them). Handy for getting into London both airports and out to the Thames Valley for work type things. Richmond Park and the river in walking distance is great too.
- Andy C
phew..
- Paul Greer
Andy, Richmond Park and the others around there are the appeal really. Good place to go photographing and cycling while being very close to London I think.

@Kol many years ago, we made the mistake of asking an estate agent in Surbiton whether it was any cheaper than Kingston. She replied 'No - of course not. We are on the fast line to Waterloo' and looked at us as if we were dog excrement.
- Andy C
I've checked rental prices in the area several times over the last 2 years and Teddington is definitely cheaper. I'm not buying, no way I can afford that. ;-) All a pip-dream anyway, need a steady job and I've not had that for a while. :-(

"With the news that Friendfeed was being sold to Facebook for an undisclosed sum, people have started flocking over to Google Reader, which shows you how fickle the internet can be. One minute they are all in Friendfeed professing their love for it and the next they are moving over to Google Reader just because they may not agree with the future direction of the other site. I have always been more of a Reader person than a Friendfeed person. I don’t know why but I feel more comfortable with Reader. Maybe it’s because it is tightly integrated with Gmail so I can email things to myself, maybe it’s because Reader has a really nice user interface so I can whiz about from post to post. I can’t pin it down but Reader has always been my preferred app. Say what you like about Google but they always instinctively seem to know what is good for the general net user and what works / doesn’t work. As a result, they have built an app which is primed to benefit from any disgruntled Friendfeed users if Facebook messes too much with it."

It has been very odd how Google seemed to ignore social networking through the years. Sure they have Orkut, but Google Reader, iGoogle and other Google tools COULD have been much better if they allowed you to add your own connections. Big miss.

Since I joined Friendfeed 14 months ago, Google Reader has been my Friendfeed client. Maybe because I'm more a "reader" person than a "comment" or "like" one?
- Iñaki Arrieta Baro
I tried GReader as a FF client for a while but was too clumsy. For me FF is best read in FF, though GReader is a good alternative.
- Kol Tregaskes
Why does Google Reader say I am "Acharya Hector Ramos"? I keep receiving e-mails directed to the real Acharya Hector Ramos, who has another Gmail address, so it seems like Google also assumes I am him and is now using it as my Google Reader name? My Google Profile is correct, so I don't know why Google Reader is mistaken.
