Google releases a feed reader

Google launched its feed reader today called the Google Reader. I’d like to be able to provide a review, but the entire site is moving very slowly. I’ll assume it’s an overload of traffic due to its recent release. There’s no Ajax swiftness going on right now, that’s for sure! I was able to add a single feed and the UI looks ok, but the Google Reader is still cranking away at importing my 200+ feeds from the OPML. It looks like I’m not the only one with this problem right now. Once I have some feeds in here to play with, I’ll post some more thoughts on the Google Reader.
