So you can simply share and then direct others to your Google Reader Shared Items page.  A very handy function and service which works nicely if you link your own feeds into the reader as described above.</p> <p>Google Reader has rich sharing functionality which can be enhanced and tweaked to share your stuff all around the web.  Once you're comfortable with basic sharing, I'd strongly recommend adding tabs on your sharer to send to other services like Facebook or Posterous (if you have them).</p> <p>Google Reader also seems more complete with a simple add on called Sidewiki. </p> <p>I've set <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20091015172913/http://www.google.com/sidewiki">Sidewiki</a> to add stuff to my free Google Profile and find the cluster (Google Reader, Google Profile and Google Shared Items), which is a real time saver.</p> <p>My Google Shared Items page is located <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20091015172913/http://www.google.com/reader/shared/greg.smithsa">here.</a> </p> <p>  </div></p> <div class="emphasis"> <a href="#comments">Read comments on this article, and add some feedback of your own</a> </div> </div> </div> <div class="round-rect"> <div class="inner"> <h2>About this article</h2> <div id="author-bio" class="span-10"> <div class="span-2"> <img alt="Profile image for gregsmithsays" width="60" height="60" src="http://web.archive.org/web/20091015172913im_/http://static.technorati.com/profile/5/gregsmithsays/gregsmithsays_medium.jpg"/> </div> <div class="span-8 last"> <h3>Article Author: <a rel="nofollow" href="/web/20091015172913/http://technorati.com/people/gregsmithsays/">gregsmithsays</a></h3> <p></p> <p><strong><a rel="nofollow" href="/web/20091015172913/http://technorati.com/people/gregsmithsays/">Visit gregsmithsays's author page</a></strong> </p> </div> </div> <div id="additional-about" class="span-5 last"> <h3>Article Tags</h3> <div class="article-tags" class="span-5 margbottom"> <a href="/web/20091015172913/http://technorati.com/tag/blogging">blogging,</a> <a href="/web/20091015172913/http://technorati.com/tag/google">google,</a> <a href="/web/20091015172913/http://technorati.com/tag/google-profile">Google Profile,</a> <a href="/web/20091015172913/http://technorati.com/tag/google-reader">Google Reader,</a> <a href="/web/20091015172913/http://technorati.com/tag/social-networking">social networking,</a> </div> <div class="widgets span-5 last margtop">  <script type="text/javascript"> var addthis_pub="49f4c2f46fb3bc72";
