We’ve reviewed Feedly’s Firefox add-on, and even itsiOS appway back in 2011.

I’ll tell you what I care about: Productivity and speed, and sharing.

You get shortcuts for quickly hopping between articles and feeds, marking feeds as read, and so on.

But what’s this “magic bar” thatgggoes to?

That means the information has to be laid out in a way that can be easily scanned and processed.

If that’s not enough, different people just read differently.

Out of these four, Magazine View and Cards view are worth elaborating on.

Very easy to scan and see if you want to dig deeper.

When you click an item, it opens in an overlay.

From left to right, you get:

Google Plus, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Facebook.

Buffer is similarly polished, popping up a beautiful overlay.
