Using Google Reader Offline

Video Transcript

"Now I'm going to show you how you can get Google Reader offline. This would probably be useful mostly for laptop users; who take their laptops different places, so when you don't have an internet connection; you could still read some stories in Google Reader. Right now; this was just released at the time I'm making this video, and it will probably be improved over time. Let me just show you how this works. Just reading from the Google Help Center; "To get Google offline, you'll need to install Google Gears. After you reset your browser, you'll have the option to hit this little icon here; this little green down arrow, and download stories. You see from this little graphic, that it will download a whole bunch of items; all at once, and then; whenever you're offline, you'll be able to read them. Just to show you real fast; this option up here is where you can get to the offline. If you click it; and then it's in the; how you say it, Google Reader for offline use. Before you begin; you have to install Google Gears, so, just install that. Just agree and download, and there we go; it's been installed. I'll go ahead, and just restart my web browser, and I'll go ahead, and allow Google to use Google Gears. I'll click that, to enable offline web applications. So, you can see now that I've installed this; it says to use Google Reader in offline mode, click the icon above. I'll go ahead, and dismiss that message, and there's the little icon. If I click this; it's going to start downloading stories, and then I'll be able to read them later; when I do not have an internet connection. So that's how you set up Google Reader; to view stories offline."
