This is great. I can finally uninstall the unread count extension and put Google Reader in a pinned tab in Opera, next to Gmail and Calendar.

This script is almost perfect. But I would prefer if the unread count label looked more like the one in Gmail. So I give it four stars.

Does what I need it to do, without unneeded bloat.

Would be great if it would really work.
It only counts the unread articles when I visit the google reader... I asked for nelp with this bug, but haven't got an answer after almost 4 months. It seems that there is no solution for that problem. so this script is meaningless :(
it could have been useful if it would work.

Works as described and is really helpful. You should check out the authors gmail favicon alert too.

Thanks for the cool idea! :)

I use Google Reader all the time and this script lets me use my time much more efficiently!

Great job.
