ReaderMini Update
February 28, 2007 · 2 Comments
I have a few changes planned for the next release, but I haven’t had any time to finish them up. March will be less busy, so expect the next release on, say, 3/15/07. Planned features for that release include:
- A “next” button in the upper right hand corner of the screen that you can use to rapidly skim your unread items and mark them read.
- The ’subscribe to feed’ feature.

Jonathan Greene recently made a video of ReaderMini running on an N800. It’s cool to see how another user interacts with it!

This was a very easy change to make, but one I’ve been wanting to make for a long time.
Changes in Release .9.3 – 1/19/07
- New Feature! Items can now be flagged for followup. To view items flagged this way, click the View Items for Followup button in the feed list. In Google Reader, scroll to the bottom of your feed list and click on the ‘followup’ label.

ReaderMini.com in the news!
January 18, 2007 · 7 Comments
Looks like people have been trying ReaderMini and have some great feedback.
Adam Pash of LifeHacker welcomes the improvement ReaderMini is over the official Google Reader Mobile app, Jason Clarke of DownloadSquad says it works great in Opera on Pocket PCs, Kevin Tofel of JKOnTheRun likes ReaderMini’s footprint on the 7 inch UMPC screen size.
Meanwhile, there is plenty of constructive criticism, too. ReaderMini requires Ajax, so PocketIE apparently doesn’t work. It doesn’t work on the SideKick 3 either. On my todo list is making a version that looks like ReaderMini.com does now, but requires no Javascript. That’s a lot of work, though, so if you really want it, leave me feedback here.

John Tokash … has replicated a very close desktop experience for the mobile browser in ReaderMini. It works very well over both EDGE data and WiFi and has really enabled a very slick experience without limits. John’s been putting in some late nights, taking all my feedback (gotta love that) and released quite a few updates in very short order.
Jon, thanks for the kind words. The excellent feedback you provide on a regular basis has helped shaped ReaderMini’s functionality and UI.
Stay tuned for more updates. The next major milestone is a skin that looks nice!!

ReaderMini is coming along nicely. It’s a Feed Reading front end for Google Reader, using the Google Reader API. It’s built primariy for use on small internet tablets (like the Nokia 770 and n800). Here are the changes that went live tonight:
Changes in Release .9 – 1/9/07
- ReaderMini is now secure (HTTPS / SSL) on the production url (readermini.com). Also, the app will force you to use HTTPS. alpha.readermini.com is not HTTPS.
- Categories of feeds can be collapsed/expanded.
- Expand all, Collapse all
- Titlebar now contains current feed name.
- Fixed: links now open in a new window.
- Fixed: Apostrophes no longer block feed loading.
- Click a category’s river (right most) button to see all posts for feeds in that category.
- Changed the ‘open connections’ Ajax indicator from images to text.

New Version of ReaderMini Up!

ReaderMini, my faster, stronger, better front end to Google Reader is now a zillion times faster at startup. Loading an account with 600 feeds is now just a few seconds on a desktop machine and less than 15 seconds on a Nokia 770 or Nokia n800 Internet Tablet. AWESOME!
