"Feedly" sounds like some horror pet of the scientist from Archer.
What tweaks have you made? Anything beyond the "Preferences" stuff that I'm missing? I have it in "magazine" style...which is pretty cool. Even GS feeds pick up images. Happy with it as I have set, but if there are secret add-ons, let me know...
This morning, Google launched their newest initiative, Google Shopping Express. It’s the once rumored same-day delivery service that will at some point include a pricing plan, similar to what Amazon has done with Prime, though same-day is something not even the magical Prime can touch at this point. The first test market is as one would expect, in San Francisco, along with the peninsula from San Mateo to San Jose. The goal of Shopping Express is to help eliminate the cross town errands that you needed to run today by allowing orders from both local and big box retailers to be delivered the same day. We’re talking stores like Target, Walgreens, Staples, and American Eagle in the “big box” realm. Local shops in SF like Blue Bottle Coffee and Palo Alto Toy & Sport are some of the current local offerings.Customers who are a part of Shopping Express will shop through online stores, find what they need, select a delivery window (broken down by four-hour time slots), and then sit back and wait as it gets delivered.
Google Glass is here, folks, whether the world is ready for it or not. After sending out notifications to participants of the Glass Explorer program and then releasing a developer API, Google also pushed out a support page for Glass which included FAQ and official tech specs. From the beginning, we were curious as to what was packed inside this new wearable tech. The mystery is finally over with. The device itself has a “durable frame” that “fits any face” and includes adjustable nosepads. The display is considered “high resolution” that is the equivalent to a 25″ HD TV being viewed at eight feet away. The camera features a 5MP sensor that can record 720p video. Audio is taken care of by a Bone Conduction Transducer. There is 16GB of internal storage, though only about 12GB is usable. A typical battery charge should get you through an entire day as long as you aren’t spending extra time video recording or participating in Hangouts.Google Glass should work on any Android device running 4.0.3 or higher and that has Bluetooth.With Glass unit in hand, the new MyGlass companion app is how you set it up.

Google Glasses scare me a little. Imagine every cop having a pair of Google Glasses, matching your face to any database that might be anywhere. "Hey you, Mister! Yes, you who just bought a car and left your wife."
