I just launched the SharedReader *beta.
SharedReader just burst out of nowhere. I know this is not a unique service but i'm very happy that I able to develop this during my spare times. When things get rough, I work on whatever comes into my mind and most of the them weren't finish.
I'm fan of Google Reader. I mostly read blogs from Google Reader than the bookmarks that I have with my Firefox browser. And there is this one service that Google Reader and the readers can share what they have in their feed's list. It's more of retelling stories and spreading it.
This is the first of PHP project that I have that parse data from remote servers. It's very simple and straighforward application.
You have the Google Reader Shared Item feed, of course you can get it if you have a Google Reader and if you do share some of what you have. Get the Shared Item feed URL and feed it here at SharedReader. By then, the script will get to the remote and parse the feeds through an XML parser and put them in accessible arrays so I can save it in my database then the counting of the articles and those who shares begins in the background.
This isn't a perfect tool or developed application, but a succes in my part.
Thank you very much and maybe you can be a help.

Just curious, did you get some initial starter feeds from ReadBurner? I only ask because on my first visit to SharedReader I thought I might as well add my feed here also, but when I tried I found that my feed was already here... At first I wondered if I had been here before, kinda like a deja vu feeling, but today is SharedReader's first day right?
Also, I'm curious if you are planning on offering different features from ReadBurner, or just a different appearance?
