Google Reader Notifier
Version: 1.02 ||
Release Date: 2007-09-22 ||
License: Freeware
Developer: http://troelsbay.eu/
Wouldn't it be nice if you could have a piece of mac software that display unread items in your Google Reader account? Wouldn't it be nice if they matched the official icons of Google Notifier? Direct access, to your online digital life, right from the menubar of the most advanced operating system to date - Mac OS X Tiger?
Well, now you can.

Opinions:
It seems to have stopped working with Google Apps (for Your Domain) when that launched to the world with the new Premier Edition. The Calendar Notifier seems to work fine, but the Email Notifier has stopped working as of a couple weeks ago. Too bad, because I loved the Growl integration and the menu bar icons.
I've juste experienced a crash issue with Google Reader. I sent a mail, and after a couple of mails it all got fixed by Troels Bay. It took less than an hour. How cool is that?
So I have been using this reader for a while and I have to say I like it. There are a couple on things that I would love. I only use this as a quick link to my reader. So I would like to be able to have the option to just click the symbol and takes me to my reader. Number two I would like the count be higher than 50. I want to be able the true number of how many news feeds I have then just click that button and boom I am in my google reader.
I don't think that would be really to add.
Also growl support would be cool too.
Nice, but it would be better if this were more like RSS Menu. I already sugggested the adding of such syncing functionality to RSS Menu's developer a few weeks ago, but he said that while he was considering it he did not consider it a high priority.
I think I am going to like this a lot. I would make it have growl support as well, because that it the beauty of owning a mac programs syncing.
