Readburner – Now Mobile And Playing Nice With Disqus
April 20th, 2008 by (jeff)isageek

One of my favorite sites these days is Readburner which takes users linkblogs or Google Shared Items (video of how it works with google reader)and creates a kind of digg like/social news site where you can see whats hot in the blogosphere.

A few months back creator Alexander Marktl announced he was closing the service down which was kind of a bummer since I was enjoying the site…but then Adam Ostrow, Drew Olanoff, Thomas Connors came along to revive the site and recently have been adding new features just improving on the original vision of Alexander.

Two you should check out are they have made readburner available via your mobile device….which i have enjoyed checking out when sitting around waiting for a table at a restaurant or traveling somewhere (of course I am not driving :) )

The other feature I really geeked out to when I saw it was that readburner now allows you to comment to posts via disqus which if you follow me on twitter or my blog you know is one of my favorite new web apps to use these days.  On a side not I would love to see the gang over at disqus go mobile as well….add that to my wishlist…maybe even #1 on the list.




  • Thanks for the kind words and support, we're gonna be blowin some minds with the stuff we're working on now ;)
  • wow I love statements like that!!! keep up the great job and look forward to blogging about new readburner stuff soon :)
  • What would you like to see in a mobile Disqus interface?
  • I would think just the basic stuff...check peoples profiles out, follow people, and of course be able to respond to comments added to my site...or find other comments that people have made and comment on those.
  • I put together a feedflare for Disqus optimized for the iPhone. You would have to use Feedburner (which you don't), but if you're curious it's at:

  • RSSmeme has gone mobile too: http://m.rssmeme.com/

    It's using the RSSmeme API to pull the english version of the front page and make it mobile friendly. And it doesn't cost me $3/month :)
  • keep up the great job and look forward to blogging about new readburner stuff soon :)
