Integrating Gmail and Google Reader

You can't control GOOGLE merging WRITELY and SPREADSHEETS together, and GOOGLE can't stop you from integrating GOOGLE READER into GMAIL either (if you want to).

Just use a GREASEMONKEY script written by Mihai Parparita (the author of the new GOOGLE READER) and you can read the sites you've subscribed to in GOOGLE READER right within your GMAIL (this requires using the FIREFOX browser).

Assuming you already have GREASEMONKEY installed: click to install Mihai's simple Greasemonkey script.

After that, log in to your GMAIL account, and you'll see an additional "feeds" link, which allows you to read GOOGLE READER content directly in GMAIL.
