Today readers do subscribes Feeds instead of emails & email can be synchronized via IMAP but what if user can enable synchronized their feeds with a Desktop reader like Outlook for emails. Well FeedDemon has finally added synchronization support for Google Reader. That means you can now read feeds on the desktop with FeedDemon but can continue using Google Reader as your online feed reader.

To Do this so Google Reader sync in your copy of FeedDemon, Just go to the FeedDemon Beta site and download the latest version of the software.

If you are already useing FeedDemon, you first need to move your RSS feed subscriptions from Newsgator to Google Reader and this can be done via Tools > Synchronization Options > Advanced > Convert Now. The conversion will take few minutes to complete and then you will be able to read all FeedDemon feeds inside your online Google Reader account.

Power users can easily map their Google Reader keyboard shortcuts to FeedDemon and for starring an item in Google Reader, just toggle the "Follow Up" flag in FD.

Synchronization speed is very good & fast but it’s still a beta software and there are chances for bugs so just back up or export your Feeds. To do that go to Google Reader > Manage Subscription > Import/Export > Export your copy in safe place.

Same kind of functionality is available in RSSBandit which enables user to sync with Google Reader
