"I'm always telling my friends about Google Reader, and while some of them
love it, others don't want to take the time to set it up. For those of you
who fall into this second category, we're announcing Google Reader Play, a
new product that makes the best stuff in Reader more accessible for
everyone. Reader Play is a new way to browse interesting stuff on the web,
customized to the topics you're interested in, with no setup required."
"Items in Reader Play are presented one at a time, and images and videos
are automatically enlarged to maximize the viewing experience. We use the
technology behind Recommended Items in Reader to populate Reader Play with
the most interesting content on the web. While you don't need a Google
account to use Reader Play, your experience will be personalized if you
sign in. As you browse, you can let us know which items you enjoy by
clicking the "like" button, and we'll use that info to show you other
content we think you'll enjoy."
"folks who already use Reader can easily use it to read their feeds as
well. Just click the feed settings menu on any feed in Reader and select
"View in Reader Play." We're launching Reader Play as an experiment in
Google Labs so that we can test it out, get feedback from you and then
improve it as quickly as possible."

And now for something completely different
March 10, 2010
"Since I've been working on Google Reader, I've told a lot of my friends
about how great it is. And while some of them try Reader and find it
really useful, many of them aren't interested in taking the time to get
Reader set up. That's why today, I'm happy to announce an experimental
product from the Google Reader team that makes the best stuff in Reader
more accessible for everyone, while giving Reader users a new way to view
their feeds. It's called Google Reader Play, and it's a new way to browse
interesting stuff on the web that's easy to use and personalized to the
things you like."
