Here's what I really want in Google Reader
I am a voracious reader of posts, thanks to Google Reader. I can move quickly, and mark quite a few with 's' and 'shift'-'s'. Works great, as I can save for myself and share with others (which get pushed to the side bar of my blog and my Facebook account). Cool!
What do I want? To be able to customize a keyboard shortcut to share with just a group of people. Use case? I would love to hit 'shift'-'c' to share with just the team at Castfire - who also use Google Reader. Would be a great, quick way for us to share what we read and are thinking, directly inside of Reader. Right now, I need to copy the link and email.
I would also love the ability to post directly from Reader. Highlight a portion of the post, hit blog this, and a blockquote + link to article, pop up in a modal window for me to blog. I can say that this would increase my blogging a TON!
Perhaps these features are already available and I am just a bit slow? Someone make me happy!!!

You know what else would be really great? A way to acknowledge the person from whom you got that link. I find so many great items on Google Reader, thanks to my fortunate friendships with people of greater intellectual and cultural acumen than I possess. They deserve the occasional shout out.
