iPhone Google Reader App (Go RSS)

Hacker News

As an avid Google Reader user I was really disappointed with the reading experience on my iPhone. I felt that the existing apps seemed to be more interested in adding features and cramming as much text into a small space rather than improving the readability of my feed and helping me decide which articles interest me or not. So I created my own https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/go-rss/id579197528?ls=1&mt=8 I have a finite number of Promo Codes. So if you are an iPhone user and a Google Reader fan and want to check it out, email feedback@gobits.ca and I'll send you one (as long as supplies last). I would love to hear feedback about what you like or hate.
