New Google RSS Preview

Posted by Ken Cheung on Monday, January 22, 2007 in Google : : one comment

I just noticed something new on my personalized Google home page. As you can see in the graphics below, there are now plus marks next to feed items. If you click on the plus mark, you can see a preview of the feed item.

I'm not sure when Google added this new feature, but it's a nice feature. One of the problems previously was that you could only see the title of the feed item on your personalized Google home page. You had to click on the link and leave the page to see more about the feed item. Now you can see a preview without leaving the page.

However, I did encounter a glitch once. No matter which plus mark I clicked on, I only got a preview of a blank page. After I hit the browser refresh button, everything worked fine again.

I'm not sure, but I think the date and time stamp might be new too. They could have been there before, but I don't remember them.

If you found this page interesting, bookmark and share it on:
