Today Google Reader was Updated:
On the Reader team, we know that the old adage “change is good” isn’t always true. Sometimes, change is just change. In this case, we hope that these decisions both improve your Reader experience today, and pave the way for additional improvements down the line. So…what’s changing, you ask?
See Official Google Reader Blog: Square is the new round. The visual changes took me a few minutes to get used to, but nothing is really all that different from the prior version.
But that’s not to say nothing has changed. Google Reader was always fast, but right after the updated Reader loaded I noticed a substantial difference it takes to load. I never had a problem with the time Reader took to load, but I’m always in favor of enhanced performance.
So basically Reader got a face lift, and it now much faster. Good job Google.
