Rattling through the versions almost daily is this new Google Reader project. gNewsReader is written in Qt, supports full feed browsing, article starring and, importantly, is wonderfully OLED/battery friendly, being black themed. It uses/syncs the read/unread feed status from the service and, interestingly, has been built around the forthcoming Symbian Belle UI. Screens, links and some comments below.

In its current form, gNewsReader is a little slow to start and it would be nice for it to remember your current preferred view (mine is 'unread items only'). But this should improve rapidly and is already a very useful little utility. Bookmark it now.

Browsing two feeds - note the Symbian Belle UI convention

Reading, sharing, starring and liking an article, all services offered by the Google Reader platform
