Google Reader within Gmail

I revisited Google Reader today. It now seems to be a useful tool for me to collect and organize (RSS) feeds from various sources in the web. If you frequently read articles from news sites such as Busineweek, Times, Fortune, Forbes, CNET, NYTimes, Bloomber, and others, you may want to use GReader to read all the current articles in a single page. Even entries from yahoo groups can be read through GReader.

Imagine myYahoo or iGoogle or netvibes but without the modular settings. That's somehow GReader.

I was even surprised that, after I logged on to Gmail, GReader was auto-integrated within Gmail. See a screen-capture below (left side, below "starred".)
