How To Restore Sharing Options And Old List Spacing In Google Reader
Reader Sharer is a simple Chrome add-on that restores the sharing functionality to Google Reader..
It's in the Chrome extension store...
Implemented features: 1. The "Your shared items". 2. The "People you follow" view. 3. The "Notes" view. 4. The "Your liked items" view. 5. Share/unshare an item (keyboard shortcut: Shift + F). 6. Share/delete an item with note (keyboard shortcut: Shift + D). 7. Like/unlike an item (keyboard shortcuts: L). 8. Display whether an item has been shared/liked or not. 9. Support both list view and expanded view. 10. Recover some old style for improving readability. Features unavailable yet: None? Can't implement features: 1. Add/delete/display comments for an item. It seems the comment API is not available now. Source code: https://bitbucket.org/keakon/reader-sharer/
Currently has 6,400 users. That's far higher than I'd expected.
Source code on Atlassian bitbucket. I think a Firefox version is pending.
The author is "keakon". His blog is Chinese, Google tried to translate it for me but froze. I don't think Google translate likes Blogger's new dynamic pages.
Now if I could figure out a way to save this microblogging archive ...

How does 'Reader Sharer' work?
How does 'Reader Sharer' work?
You're exceeding my knowledge -- but I'll try.
1. The service/API is still working, just hidden.
2. I think modern browsers don't render HTML directly. They construct an in-memory model of the page and then render that. That model can be revised more easily than revising inline HTML.
I suspect ReaderSharer modifies the in-memory page model to restore the links and javascript that Google removed.
I'm making this up though. It's been a long time since I looked at this topic.
