S60 Users Get Optimized Google Reader

Right after Picasa another Google’s product gets optimized for our lovely S60 device and it looks much better now!!!

There are several UI improvements; new Google Reader version is specifically optimized for viewing on S60 phones via default Safari based browser and offers almost the same functionality as the desktop version.

Of course, it is highly suggestible to set up your feeds in the desktop version, but then you can read and filter it by star, tag, or feed.

Beside the cosmetic improvements, newly updated reader forces opening all outgoing links in the new window, just like the desktop version which is great solution in my personal opinion, especially considering that Safari browser still lacks trivial open in new widow option!
