Sigh. I like the redesign (it's about time!) but I hate that they're turning off sharing. I use that to run my link blog, and now I'll have to figure out another workaround.

Sharing works. Sharing just does not work without publicly +1 the reader item. (This is a big -1 for me).

As the current top comment notes: You click the "Share..." button on the G+ (black)bar.

True, but the issue there is that it now takes about 4 mouse clicks that used to be a single shortcut. To set this link blog (squealingrat.org/new) up all I needed to do was feed my Google Reader shared items into the Wordpress blog.

Oh wow. UI fail. I missed that completely. Thanks for mentioning it.

Yeah, I am quite annoyed by that as well. What's the point?

Well, you can create a new Tag, then go to "Details and Statistics" in the arrow right next to the Tag and get the feed URL for it. Then you can import that to your blog, and every item you put in that Tag will appear.
