I share all sorts. :-) Lots of photos, photography and tech stuff though. Feel free to sub to me if you like. :-) BTW, you can see who is following you here: http://www.google.com/reader... #whatsyoururl - Kol Tregaskes
Thanks, Michael. - Kol Tregaskes
More often I end up sharing directly through FF even if I find it on GReader, but sometimes I share there. http://www.google.com/reader... - Tony, Paradox of FF
http://www.google.com/reader... I'm glad you asked this right now. I just realized that several people are following me and I didn't even know it. I hope it hasn't been this way for long! - Michael Fidler
Michael, it's not been clear until very recently, you can see notifications here: http://www.google.com/reader... - Kol Tregaskes
Love yr posts :-))))) - Johni Fisher
thanks for starting this thread - here's mine http://www.google.com/reader... (mostly social media stuff, a little food, and occasional randomness) - Chris Rogers
Kol, thanks! I wish it would tell me when they started following, I'll have to keep a better eye on it now. - Michael Fidler
Mine is http://www.google.com/reader... - hope you enjoy! - outofmyarse
Just noticed that Reader now allows grouping of people you follow! Wondering: is Reader going to become a competitor (instead of complement) to FriendFeed? - Chris Rogers
http://www.google.com/reader... - Always looking for more ppl to share links! - Liza
Ah so that's your name, M F! ;-) I'm wanting to live in that area too, nice around there? - Kol Tregaskes
Yes it's alright I moved here two years ago, I was in West London before that - M F
GREAT FEED - I am finding so many great ppl to follow - this is great. - Liza
M F, I like to move to just over the other side of the stream from you. :-) - Kol Tregaskes
And your pics are great! I am going to be stuck in greader for a while! - Liza
Well wave your hand Kol when you get here - M F
http://www.google.com/reader... - But I only really use google reader as a simple RSS reader. Follow people on FriendFeed. - Anton Tanderup
Hehe, M F. :-) - Kol Tregaskes
Thanks for your latest bookmark there, Kim. :-) - Kol Tregaskes
feedly.com :) - Zach Landes
http://www.google.com/reader... but everything I share in reader comes on to FriendFeed. - Aram Zucker-Scharff from twhirl
http://www.google.com/reader... - the stuff I share there is also on FriendFeed. - Hanna Wiszniewska
http://www.google.com/reader... mine are mostly science items - Sally Church
Mine is http://www.google.com/reader... - Mostly Tech. - Svartling
http://www.google.com/reader... - mixed up content in Portuguese (mainly), English and Spanish. - Marcos
Liza, oooh I love the post on generating Mandelbrot fractals in Excel! - Sally Church
@rogersdc / Chris, Google Reader is obviously been trying to become more social, but I'd really like to see FF come out with a bookmarklet that makes sub'ing RSS feeds to FF easier/faster. Right now it's a manual process involving either a new Group/Room or Imaginary Friend. Should be 2 clicks tops.. Also see: http://friendfeed.com/alexsch... - Alex Schleber
Thanks everyone! :-) - Kol Tregaskes
Here is mine : http://www.google.fr/reader.... I share (mainly on French sites and blogs) about libraries, literature and arts, human and social sciences, photography :-) - Nadine Pestourie
http://www.google.com/reader... Google and other tech stuff, as well as other random things of interest. - Californian

No worries, Amy. :-) Thank you all! - Kol Tregaskes
LOL here we go again :o) http://www.google.com/reader... I share a lot of blogs and funny stuff that I read, it's neat how I can share and it gets posted all over by friendfeed. - David Gross
Thank you. - Kol Tregaskes
Don't know that I have one, as I eschew most things Google.... - Mike Shields
Not sure if I've already shared it, but my URL is http://www.google.com/reader.... - Tyson Key
Thank you guys. - Kol Tregaskes
your welcome kol - Tony C from IM
I think that I over-loaded my poor G-Reader by adding all of you. ;-) - Mathew A. Koeneker
Here is my feed: http://l.clipotech.com/shared - I will try to add all of you on this list :) - Svartling
Don't forget to add all out new contacts in to groups. Otherwise we cant comment on each others shared items. - Svartling
http://www.google.com/reader... - Almost exclusively tech, including humor/cartoons and productivity. - Mahendra (SkepticGeek)
http://www.google.com/reader... - I share items about productivity, gaming, movies, and misc. stuff from the Google "cool" via Recommendations feed. Thanks Kol for starting this thread because I've been trying to cut down on the number of feeds I subscribe to and instead just follow interesting people. - Dusty Edenfield
Svartling: good point about adding people to groups. I noticed I couldn't comment on items that were shared by some users. - Dusty Edenfield
Thanks everyone. - Kol Tregaskes
I've (we) written a lot of more good tips on how to use Google Reader in Google Reader comments. It's too bad we don't have permalinks in Greader so we can share our notes and comments. Otherwise I could have posted a link here. Here are some on friendfeed: http://friendfeed.com/svartli... - Svartling
here's mine! Love some of the new features... http://www.google.com/reader... - tomit
I don't think I added mine yet: http://www.google.com/reader... - LogEx
Thank you. - Kol Tregaskes
I guess I best start sharing stuff, then. :D - http://www.google.com/reader... - Bette Cooper
http://www.google.com/reader... - I guess I'm a bit late to the party, but here's mine. I share mainly technology, photography, design... and other random stuff. - Ryan - @magicofpi
Thank you all. - Kol Tregaskes
Yes! The list I was looking for! I'll get my info on here as soon as I get on my netbook - Kamilah Gill from email
Thanks for posting this Kol. Never paid any attention to my shared items folder before but just did! - Martha
The conversation is really blowing up (in a good way) on Reader. The most important reminder currently is to set up groups and allow commenting. That is NOT on by default! - Vince DeGeorge
Vince, exactly! - Kol Tregaskes
Not sure how I missed this thread. I share lots of tech news, some programming stuff and a little more at http://www.google.com/reader... - Rob Diana
There is also a group that collected a bunch of reader shares at http://friendfeed.com/share-y... - Rob Diana
http://www.google.com/reader... - Or just go to: Sharing settings on your google reader shared items and search for: Avi Joseph - Avi Joseph
Thank you all. I think I have subscribed you all now (except those feed in languages I don't understand) Here is mine again: http://www.google.com/reader... - Svartling
I've started to follow a few of the people here but there's quite a few, so will take me a while :) - My currently fairly bare feed is: http://www.google.com/reader... - Roy Herrod
http://www.google.com/reader... - topics include a bit of everything, but there's a fair about of Android-related stuff in there - Chuck Falzone
http://www.google.com/reader... - German - mostly politics and crude funny things. Maybe some new technology - JoeD
Thank everyone. - Kol Tregaskes
There are a few entries here you might like to read to help you. This one: http://ff.im/6CkQj explains about adding people to groups to allow them to comment and why some don't stay in groups. In this one: http://ff.im/6F9pQ I suggest a way to track a large number of shared items using PostRank. This: http://ff.im/6Ci0P and this: http://ff.im/6AM35 has a few tips on using GReader as a lifestreaming service. And this: http://ff.im/6EMT1 gives a few examples of GReader bundles. - Kol Tregaskes
http://www.google.com/reader... I mostly share ART with a little bit this and that thrown in for good measure. - Kimber Scott
Ryo: Same here :) "completely moved to Google Reader / Twitter / Posterous" All my followers, please subscribe to me on Google Reader: http://www.google.com/reader... or my lifestream: http://l.clipotech.com/lifestr... - Svartling
http://www.google.com/reader... share various science research and news - Colby from iPod
http://www.google.com/reader... -- nothing shared yet; still learning several social networks & services, so it might take me a while... - Dennis Jernberg
Those of you above whom I already follow on FF/Twitter/etc., I've subscribed to your feeds. As for the rest of you: if you follow me on GReader, I'll follow you back. - Dennis Jernberg
I'm sharing some pages now, including a few of my past blog entries. - Dennis Jernberg
easier to just follow and edit groups from search url>http://www.google.com/reader... - Ru Viljoen
Because I have issues with data duplication, I have merged this list with the google reader shares room feeds. You can view the Google spreadsheet at http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc... - Rob Diana
There are a bunch of shared feeds that I could not resolve the Google username for because they did not have a named profile set up. - Rob Diana
tristanhambling, your link didn't work. :-( - Kol Tregaskes
Thank you very much, Rob! - Kol Tregaskes
http://www.google.com/reader... Right now I'm testing it in comparison to Netvibes. It's yet to be seen if I end up making the switch. - Brad Williamson
http://www.google.com/reader... Mainly photography related things. - Sven
It would be really handy to have all these shared feeds as an opml file. Has anyone added everyone? Care to export an opml of the shared feeds? - Paul Jacobson
Paul, can do that but it will be out of date the moment I post it as I'm getting more new users all the time. - Kol Tregaskes
Maybe someone could hook up something via Yahoo Pipes (or whatever) to automatically generate the OPML? - Tristan Seligmann
Damond, I'm getting that deja vu feeling. ;-) - Kol Tregaskes
Whoa, hey, I'm late to this. I'm here: http://www.google.com/reader... :-) - Jordan Hofker
I'm http://www.google.com/reader... Not really comfortable with the custom URL though since it can only be your gmail username. Makes it really easy for spamspiders I think. - TobiasVerhoog.com
Tobias, possibly but not had any problems myself though Gmail has the best spam filters around so I probably not noticed. ;-) - Kol Tregaskes
http://www.google.com/reader... Please dont tell me I have to add everyone manually like I did with Facebook yesterday?? *sigh* - Julia Ault
http://www.google.com/reader... link to my bundle with all my feeds that i have in friendfeed too - Chris Hofmann
http://www.google.com/reader... mostly webdev, photography news, music, world news which i get interested. plus half of them may be article in Japanese. sorry. :-p - browneyes
Thanks all! - Kol Tregaskes
spread those tentacles thats what i say (I'm generally sharing comics, animation, and interesting weirdeness) : http://www.google.com/reader... - Paul Greer
Exactly, Paul. :-) - Kol Tregaskes
There are a few people that have not added me to a group and so I cannot reply to some of your comments. :-( - Kol Tregaskes
http://www.google.com/reader... - OK I'm in. Late as always. Will post my thoughts, feedback and pleading requests for help over in Google Reader so please follow me over there. Eat your own dog food and all that. - Andy C
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 Tregaskes
Teddington (across the river from Kingston Upon Thames, is where I think I'd like to live. Just 'cos it's cheaper than everywhere else around it. :-) - Kol Tregaskes
@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. :-( - Kol Tregaskes
Thanks guys. - Kol Tregaskes
http://www.google.com/reader... GReader, Twitter, and Delicious (plus my own sites) are my primary hubs now. Y'all please join me on GReader. - Chris Baskind

well Friendfeed is looking a bit pale these days. Not the same kind of party as before. So I would say Friendfeed : Dead, Scoble : Alive - Mark O'Neill
Can't they both be right? - Kevin Shaum
FriendFeed's less shiny, but that's a good thing. Scoble? His opinion matters as much to me as that of any other A-lister. - Walt Crawford

How To Conduct A Free Criminal Background Check Online - http://www.makeuseof.com/tag...
"I am split on this site. On the one hand, I can understand the need to protect your children and yourself from felons who are potentially still dangerous. But on the other hand, there IS such a thing as rehabilitation. A lot of people do reform from their bad ways and strive to lead a better life. I personally know several people who have criminal records and they regret what they did calling it “a bad mistake”. Prison reformed them and when they got out, they vowed to become better honest people. But what if their new boss / new neighbour used this site to find out they were convicted criminals? Suddenly their good intentions to become better people would be undermined by people who wouldn’t believe they had changed. So I feel that sites like this can potentially start misguided witch-hunts. So it should be used with extreme caution and common sense. Just my two cents" - Mark O'Neill
