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.

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…

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 :(

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 ?

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

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.

repeat gifs rather than just playing them once
gifs only play once, but should repeat indefinitely.

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.

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.…

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

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.

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.

Auto log off
Add a configuration option to auto log off users that close the browser tab. This is needed to prevent google account hacking by opening The old reader before the password protected goggle accounts that do not log in ayuthomatically.. .

That’s the best suggestion, thank you.
We’d love to, but venture capitals don’t grow on the trees these days. -
Auto Scrolling
Have the option to have the feeds scroll down automatically, perhaps at variable speeds and then be able to stop the scrolling when an article you want to read comes up.
