Google Reader now supports offline reading

Google Gears, a browser extension (not just for Firefox!) that will allow you to take all your online applications offline, now supports Google Reader. You can download the most recent 2000 items for offline reading. It promises not to use up all your browser’s memory or slow it down, too.

Naturally, being from Google, Gears is in beta. If you are running Firefox 1.5+ or IE6+ on XP, Vista, Mac, or Linux, at the top right in Google Reader, you should see an Offline link. We can only hope offline Gmail is to follow. Google Docs & Spreadsheets (& Presenter) shouldn’t be far behind, either.
