I don't think there's a way to get Reader to read feeds inside the firewall. No proxy option, and even if there were, it would be a security no-no, being stored on Google's servers and all.

Added your feed of shared items. I should warn you, mine feed is pretty heavy traffic, which could be good if you want to use me as a filter.

I heard people trying to get Reader to work on feeds inside the firewall, but not heard of anyone who solved it.

My shared items are here http://tinyurl.com/58fm2p

Now to start finding friends stuff to read.

Shared Items is a key feature of Reader, whether you're sharing with a team or just sharing with the 'tubes. Definitely a plus for Reader vs. other 'tubes-based readers. Too bad there's no proxy option for feeds inside the firewall. I get why, just an tiny inconvenience.

Inasmuch as I was reading this post in Google Reader (within Firefox, no less), I've gone ahead and added your “Shared Items” feed.

My Google Reader Shared Items, incidentally, are at the http://www.google.com/reader/shared/16878435176... URL, although the content…um…varies.

And no, I didn't know about Ctrl+Tab or Ctrl+Tab+Shift; thanks!
