Need: 1. Page to open when icon is clicked: Label 2. Popup short list with the possibility of zeroing a-la inoreader.

Rating: 4¾ Stars. An excellent restoral of the Glogle Reader that we lost. The only thing keeping it from being a perfect five stars is that there is no option for having it ope to the Subscriptions folder. Everything else about it is perfect!
