: My question is, when is it going to be a part of Google Sync? They've got calendar, email, and contacts... Tasks is now the missing link. I don't want to have to open my mobile browser to manage tasks, I want to do it via the built-in Windows Mobile functionality.

: One of the problems I have with Google Reader as a hub of anything is that it's antisocial. It's very difficult - I think - to find and add people to your sharing network. Sure you set your shares to public, but I only do that so I import them into Friendfeed for discussion, which definitely is a hub.

: " If shares are integrated with PubSubHubbub, then an application developer will be able to monitor reader shares constantly. This allows Google Reader to be included in any real time application, like FriendFeed.
These two ideas could push Google Reader into the breaking news segment very quickly."

Words have obvious meanings to most users, and even when knowledge fails, there's an obvious method to compensate: look it up. Numbers also have semantic values, but they're a lot harder to work with. Most of us can probably recognize 3.14159 and the conceptual baggag (Read More)
