Google Reader question

I've read somewhere before that it's possible to make folders for all your starred items.  This would be uber helpful for me as I have 300+ starred items.

Anyone know how to do this?  I've tried and tried and cannot figure it out.

    Google Reader = best thing ever

    I don't know how you read blogs without it.  Basically it's a place to keep and organize all the blogs you follow.  First, you need a Google account.  I already had gmail so I just used that.  Google is compatible with Blogger and Wordpress so all the blogs you already follow will appear in your reader.  In the mornings, I just scroll through my Reader and look at all the new posts since the last time I logged on.  If something is of interest to me (like a recipe), I star it.  That way when I want to go back to it, I know it's in my starred file.

    Did that make sense?

  • On google reader, at the bottom of each post,there should be something about "tags" to click on...either edit or add. If you write tags as your categories, it automatically sorts it in a folder under that name. To access them, scroll to the bottom of your subscriptions in the left side toolbar and they should look like little tags with the names next to them. :)

  • well this sounds like something I need to do!!

  • Google reader allows you to "subscribe" to blogs, and it will automatically catch every blog update from that blog for you in a list format. You can star blog entries to save them for later or just scroll through them. It distinguishes read from unread posts too...it's greatness!
  • Okay whoever invented this is a genious, thanks!
    Warning No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
