Mark As Read and scrolling by was much more intuitive and convenient for me! It took a few days to get used to it, but I love it now. I agree with you about google reader.

That's funny. That default "mark as read" behavior was pretty much the only reason why I did NOT switch to google reader yet as I much prefer the way bloglines handle it. To each's own I guess.

Feed management is a mess compared to blogines, but like gmail, many are blinded by the ajaxy google goodness that they seem to miss these major points. google reader is slow to load compared to bloglines, and frustratingly, hangs mid-load, even on broardband for many i’ve seen to. bloglines loads each feed, no fus, and presents it uniformly with nice spacing and no space wasted. google thinks its find to fill half a post’s space with rounded corners, shadows and such like – not good. yes, its an improvement, but not nearly as much in the feature / usability as we were expecting, let alone compared to bloglines. google do one thing well: search. gmail is great, but by no means flawless. google reader is the same.

Offline feed readers are not really an option for me unless they integrate to an online (i.e central) source (let me know if one exists!).
