Pixel specialist Na Wong (artist profile) has hand crafted the most beautiful Google Reader restyling of modern times. Pure Reader. Personally I never quite got into the whole “Helveti” trend, so I just ended up avoiding Google Reader on the web altogether. But this new extension… it… it recrafts Google Reader into an application, but at the same time not mimicking desktop UI.

The Dragonfly Effect - Small Acts Create Big Change Make stories part of your culture — and more than that, the integrity of your culture. All-hands meetings can be pivotal here.

Google knows that, and they've been working for a while now to add enterprise-friendly policy support to Chrome. Now, Google has made policy templates available for download which provide a measure of lockdown functionality. As you can see, after importing the .ADM files into the Windows Group Policy Editor you'll be able to manage a handful of Chrome settings via a local machine policy. A default home page and proxy settings can be configured and Chrome Sync can be blocked, but the bulk of the options are related to background communications with Google (alternate error pages, DNS prefetch, crash reporting, suggestions, etc.).
