So my favorite skin for gmail has finally completed and released their redesign for greader.  I am a big fan of it and it looks really clean.  Looks like for now you have to manually update the plugin for Firefox and then update the styles after that but the end result is very nice.

Globex Designs plugin

Code for a bookmark that will allow you to preview the RSS feed in Google Reader before subscribing to it

New plugin changes the look and functionality of Google Reader for the better, it also allows you to skin Google Reader
