So the buzz is that Google Reader is going to lose its social sharing aspects in deference to Google Plus. Some people are raising a fuss about this, and with good reason. I can see Google's desire to consolidate its social sharing strategy, but there's a simple solution. Rebuild Google Reader's social sharing using the Google Plus API as a foundation. You make existing Google Reader users happy, you broaden their reach by extending the shares seamlessly into Google Plus, and you make a showcase for third-party developers on the kinds of products and services that can be built to enhance and extend Google Plus. * I helped design Google Reader and have opinions about it.
