Mark has written about the new features introduced in Google Reader, the significance of them was the ability to share and comment on posts with your friends. But if you feel that the Google Reader interface lacks pizzazz, you should be using Feedly instead. I am in love with Google Reader’s social features (here is my shared feed) and Feedly makes it even better.
We have covered Feedly before here on MakeUseOf. Since then, it has improved and kept up with the new features introduced in Google Reader as well. Feedly works only with Firefox at present, but an experimental version for Safari is already out and support for Chrome is round the corner. Want to see what other users are saying?

Organize with the Dashboard
You should use the Dashboard to organize your feeds to get the best experience. From the Dashboard, you can:
Create and rename categories
Drag and drop to move and organize feeds in categories
Identify and delete feeds you haven’t read in a long time
Mark your favorites so they come up on top in the different views
