More bars than Dublin...I agree, the waste of space is annoying. I can't even think of the last time I wanted to search my RSS feeds and it's taking up a chunk of space.
On a 13inch Macbook add the Mac App bar, Chrome (tabs + search-url + bookmarks toolbar) a third of the readable area is covered with "bars".
- bergie 15y agoYep, with GNOME3 and Firefox, the new Google Reader takes some 326 of my 768 vertical pixels before we get to the actual article I'm reading
- seltzered_ 15y agosame setup, i used the minimalist reader plugin to make life easier: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/pgpppbiipcfcldpgcjlhoehdffdjjall https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/pgpppbiipcfcldpgcj... NOTE: I haven't checked to see if this plugin still works on the new google reader design.
- edderly 15y agoThankyou! It does appear to work.
- glenstein 15y agoI am very annoyed at the waste of space, waiting for a new Google Reader Absolutely Compact extension for Opera. That said, I frequently search my RSS feeds. To my surprise, there's often lots of very informing stuff on economic/political questions I might search about; it's like consulting my own private network of expert commentary, and is often more useful to me than google search.
- anigbrowl 15y agoFor real. It's even worse in Google groups. I realized this a few months ago during the Chromebook beta test; Everything is a toolbar, and Chrome is giving me UI fatigue.
