I’m a big fan of Google Reader. But one thing that annoys is that I can’t find a history view that would let me go back through my own reading trail. Shared items, sure, but while I don’t necessarily want my reading history public, at least I should be able to see my history, shouldn’t I?

I frequently read a post and then later decide I want to go back to it, and have no idea where it was. I often know about when I read it (if it was very long ago, I probably wouldn’t remember about it anyway), but that doesn’t help me without a history to browse through.

This is made worse by the fact that not only do I subscribe to more blogs than I can keep up with, I also frequently read links from other prodigious link sharers (like Scoble and Chris Brogan), and so there’s a good chance I don’t even subscribe to the blog where the item was actually posted.

That’s just a huge oversight. Or maybe I just haven’t found it yet. If you know of a way, please let me know. If you’re one of our Google overlords, please add it.
