View next unread post (for bookmarklet) - subscriber only

Open nevinera opened this issue 11 years ago • 0 comments

An endpoint (and bookmarklet) that redirects to your most recent unread feed entry, and marks it as read. If there are none, simply display a static page to indicate that.

It'd have to be subscriber only, since you don't get to serve any ads, but I'd gladly pay for the only feature on google reader I actually used. It reduced my usage of the feed reader to a single button that I pressed when I wanted a distraction.

This feature is best with background updates, but you could probably get away with updating feeds only if they request a new one, you have no unread articles to give them, and you haven't refreshed in the last 15 minutes.

Bonus points if you can also have a bookmarklet for each category of feeds - then I could click on the 'dev' button for a software post, or the 'food' button for a cooking post, etc.

No offense intended, as your site looks pleasant enough, but I'd rather not have to load a page so I can find another page to load.
