Remove the button, change to refresh every 3 seconds, and will update the window title as well

Any way to make this work on the main count within the reader page, not off to the left?

as well the title? but mainly the top count beside the all items/new button

This script does work and does provide info that Google Reader does not. To activate it, see the icon next to "All items". Just click on it.

You need to click the icon besides it

not working for me... total unread items and per category still shows 1000+ ...

The script sum up all unread items count and display the actual value instead of "1000+", please let me know if greader already have this function

thats already available from Google Reader so you wasted your time in posting this but still you tried and thats what matters
