Is it just me that’s suffering with Google Reader at the moment? When I load it, it shows all the new posts by blog, but clicking on the blog to read, just results in the little bubbling flasks for all eternity.

This has been happening for the last couple of days, and appears to coincide with the recent update to FF 2.0.0.4. I installed Google Gears to see if that would help, and it did indeed allow me to read the posts offline, but it would then not reconnect the following day.

This problem has occurred on 2 different PC’s, both running FF 2.0.0.4, one with Google Gears and one without. Google Reader still works OK in both IE’s 6&7 but that’s no fun at all, although at least it proves it’s a Firefox issue.

Anyone else? This is making it hard work to get around & visit people, as I have to do it the old fashioned way :-(
