This is exactly what I needed :) It would be nice if it added an 'edit' button to the page though. Miriam, if you know how to add this I'd love to hear about it. Otherwise I'll have a hunt round and see what I can dredge up. Awesome! This is exactly what I needed :)

Take a look at elifoner.com. Click on any of the items, and you will see that in his sidebar he has a box that displays items from his Shared Items in Google Reader. If you click on Read More... in the box, it takes you to his Shared Items page. It looks like you can subscribe to his feed there. This means that you probably have a feed for your shared items too. So all you have to do is display the feed for your shared items in your sidebar. How do you display feeds? That's another question, and I hope to discuss that here soon...

But if your shared feeds page has an RSS feed, than it is possible to set up your blog to display RSS feeds from other sites. Actually, there is a newish site called Dapper (set up by Israelis - a national plug!) that allows you to "RSSify any site", so even if Google Reader doesn't provide a built in RSS feed for your shared page, you may be able to create one. I will write about displaying RSS feeds on ablog soon (so stay tuned), and if I have time I'll test out Dapper and see if I can get it to display an RSS-type feed on WordPress from a site without RSS. It's an interesting question that you've asked, and I'm excited to see what we discover! Hey Alpesh,

I would really to see dynamic update using this plugin. Pulling my shared feeds from Google, so that I don't have to write or share cool links from others via a post. Any ideas? Alpesh Awesome!
