How To Get Google Reader Back

Today I searched for New Google Reader Themes in hopes to change their current eye strain of a theme. The switch had annoyed me so much that I have been using NewsBlur as my reader of choice. It has not been bad, but it has it’s quirks. When the Google Reader update was made, I searched in vain on how to get back the old theme. In my search I saw that people had built themes for the previous version of reader, which I did not even know existed. Of course, the new update had broke all these themes out there.

Today I decided to take another stab and see if there was any new themes for the current Reader.

Google brought me over to this page:

http://userstyles.org/styles/browse?search_terms=google reader

I then found a style titled “Gooder Plus-Old Google Reader Style”. Now we’re talking!!! Here is what is needed to get this going:

  1. You must be using Chrome
  2. Install the Stylish extension
  3. Install the Gooder Plus-Old Google Reader Style into Stylish
  4. Go to your Google Reader

Now if I could only get back the original Reader sharing…sigh
