  2. Show folders names in bold if there are any unread items

    Same behaviour like the Google Reader.
    If there are any unread items in that folder display the name in a bold typeface to stand out more.

  3. Following users - comments highlight

    One of the most missed functionalities from the (old old) greader, was the ability to have "conversation threads" within the shared items, this really made people fall in love with the platform.

    The Old Reader (new new... like ramona i guess), have this almost nailed down, sharing and commenting in content is a breeze, however there's no highlight of the commented items and therefore the "conversation" within the topic may be lost. It would be good that the Following section highlighted the items that have received comments.

    Thanks

  4. minimize profile panel

    Is there a way to minimize the profile panel so that it doesn't take up a third of the real estate on my monitor? Thanks.

  5. Reference friends in comments (like @someone or +someone)

    The basic idea is reference a friend that I follow and him follows me back in a comment.

  6. Blogroll/Link List HTML Generator

    On my website, I have a tab for "Links" to share the sites that I enjoy reading. I published that link page with HTML that Google Reader produced based on subscriptions I had. I had reader set up in folders (News, Gossip, Recipes, Fun Stuff, Fashion, etc) and I could create HTML for each folder listing links to all my subscriptions.

    Would love to see that here to replace that, so that I do not have to manually update, it just mimics what I am reading.

  7. Sort in order that new feed items were discovered

    I'm a new Google Reader convert, and I'm experiencing a problem that I can put down only to the fact that The Old Reader is taking considerable time to find and catch up with my feeds.

    I had manually marked as read all of the many thousands of posts that were more than about two weeks old. However, over the next couple of days, I keep noticing new items appearing in my list that are more than two weeks old (and others that are less than two weeks as well, although it's hard to tell which of these are new…

  8. Disable automaticl scrolling for small posts that fit into the screen

    Disable scrolling for small posts (when I expand them via mouse). In Google Reader I can expand/collapse without moving the mouse cursor. But in TOR even these posts are scrolled to the top, and I have to move the mouse again :(

  9. Create several favorites folder

    I am putting interesting posts (not feeds) into my favorites folder.

    Due to the reason that I have feeds of different topics, I would like to arrange the entries in the favorites folder by my personal order.

    For example:

    favorites folder 1 only contains posts from "computer feeds"
    and
    favorites folder 2 only contains posts from "car feeds"
    etc.

    Question (suggestion of a new feature):

    Is it possible to create more than one favorites folder or list ?

  11. streamline folder making

    It's not hard to make folders and get the hang of moving stuff. It's just that it's memory intensive and it takes a lot of time to organize stuff

  12. keyboard shortcuts after share

    After sharing a post, I press 'n' my usual shortcut to move to the next post, but it starts typing n in the shared comment box. The keyboard shortcut should have priority. Those that want to comment, should click on the comment box.

  14. Show which feeds have the least number of articles I read in them

    I consume my feeds at a folder level rather than the individual feed level, some feeds contain a large number of posts.
    It would be great if in the same way you display dead feeds you could display feeds where I rarely view the content (other than scanning through the headings).

    For example on feed Y tell me that I only expanded or visited 2% of the posts.

    This feature would be useful where you have multiple related feeds to ensure a wide converge and want to flag up and remove those sources which are not as good.

  15. Share news items with only specific people (or only 1)

    The one feature I miss from Reader than Old Reader doesn't have was the ability to share news items with a select audience via the use of shared folders converted to RSS feeds.

    This was a bit of a hack, but it worked for my purpose: Sharing items only with my wife. Sure, someone could have found the feed and subscribed, but why would they care? It didn't consist of private news items, but it did consist of things my wife and I would talk about, and I didn't really want to share what I was reading/thinking about with everyone.…

  16. have full screen option

    I have a netbook. That means small screen. Google reader had the 'w' option to full screen within the window to remove everything except the reading pane. I would love to have that

  17. Automatically pull URL from clipboard when adding a feed

    I would find it convenient if, after clicking to add a feed, the contents of my clipboard (most likely a URL) would automatically get pasted into the field.

  20. Support Authenticated Feeds

    Some feeds require that you log in to access the feed. I know google reader did not support this feature but it would be nice.

    Some current work around's include freemyfeed, but I'm having issues getting that working.
