These seem really neat for emissions free deliveries in the city. Do wonder about security - not only the cargo being stolen but the whole bike. Cargo bikes for greener business deliveries in congested cities - Springwise

Google Reader - Colorful List View

December 20th, 2008 · No Comments

If you’re like me and like to read your feeds sorted by tags, you’ll find yourself jumping from blog to blog. Some Greasemonkey styles for Google Reader drop the feed name to save space, making it hard to tell articles apart.

Color is an efficient way to cue people that things are changing. Unless you’re color-blind, I guess. But since I’m not, I appreciate the Google Reader - Colorful List View script because it makes it simple to tell that there’s different feeds.

Note: updated to show correct script

Greasefire - automatically find greasemonkey scripts

December 17th, 2008 · No Comments

This Greasemonky script Greasefire :: Firefox Add-ons looks interesting but it doesn’t run on Firefox 3.1 beta, which I’m running now. I find the Greasemonkey scripts for Google Reader very helpful.

It’d be nice to look into later.

Smart Google Reader Subscribe Button

If you’re like most people, you’ve got more feeds in your news reader than you can keep up with. What’s neat about this script is that it not only makes it easy to subscribe but also shows you if it’s already in your subscription list. If it is, it’s shown with a checkmark over the RSS icon.

My only objection is that it’s not posted to UserScripts, a central repository for Greasemonkey scripts.

Smart Google Reader Subscribe Button is highly recommended.

It’s almost tempting to implement this just to see if anybody enters their info, isn’t it?
