The Daily UserScript: Google Reader Directory Search Menu Command

Today I wrote a simple time saving UserScript for Google Reader. Often I find myself wanting to do a search of the Google Reader feed directory, but currently the process is brutal.

The Unpleasantry:

Take a look at the current process of searching the Google Reader feed directory:

1. First you have to find and click the well named linked "Browse for stuff".
2. Then you can look for and click the "Search" tab.
3. Then look for and use the "Search by keyword" form.

The Alleviation:

Once you install the "Google Reader Directory Search Command" UserScript you have a better option which is:

Greasemonkey Ubiquity Command Method

I recently released a greasemonkey Ubiquity command which you can use with this userscript.

1. Hit your Ubiquity hotkey
2. Type "gm directory search with keywords" where keywords is a string of keywords you wish to search for.
