Revisited Google Reader to use as Twitter watcher
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my site using a feedreader or email. Thanks for visiting - Damien.
These are my Twitter feeds via Google Reader. Just imported James’ Twitter OPML file and added some new Twitter links of other Irish people I know. Viewing them via that Grazr Widget is painful. I prefer this method, til I come up with something a little better.
I expected Google Reader to be better with all the hype. The scroll, refresh, scroll, refresh, scroll refresh is beyond annoying. It’s nasty UI design. Is there a way of fixing it? The tagging/labeling is also still shit. Really surpised people like this over bloglines.

Have you tried the full-page, three-pane version of Grazr as well?

Cool idea. I can’t keep up with all the new Irish twitter users but if I’ve left out anyone who’d like to be added please let me know.
BTW, I know that slider view in Grazr isn’t to everyone’s taste but there are two alternatives which are more like conventional feed reading views - 3-Pane and Outline. You can change the view from the View menu. If neither of those are satisfactory please describe how we might offer a better view. Any feedback is appreciated.

[...] Well apparently some a great deal of Irish people are fans of the service, there is a OMPL file here [...]
