Google’s Nexus One vs. iPhone, Droid and Palm Pre

The below info is American-focused but you can get an idea of the benefits and pitfalls of each phone.  Also, as I have always maintained, go for the phone which would suit your particular needs. Not everyone needs an iPhone despite it’s Cool status, which seems to be slowly dying out now.  If you’re a business person, get a Blackberry.  If you’re an all media, social, business, game and traveller junkie… stick with the iPhone… It’s all about utility, yo.

Brand New Google Reader for iPhone

The guys at Google Reader really wanted to maximise the iPhone’s capability with Google Reader and have developed a Beta application which facilitates this. You can use it by visiting http://www.google.com/reader/i/ on your phone.

This new design is very similar to the desktop, making it quick and easy to act on items. It’s set in the list view, so you tap it and it expands… simple.  Starring, sharing, and marking unread are all done in oneplace, so you never have to leave the list view or refresh the page. This makes accessing your Google Reading list that much faster.

You don’t automatically get sent to it since it is still in beta, so bookmark the link above. There’s also a discussion group for those wanting to test it out fully and provide feedback.
