+In keeping with the tips and tricks for web apps theme I promised today, here's a stylesheet to [make Google Reader more Mac-like][1]. The design comes from creative maven Jon Hicks who has previously made a similar theme for Bloglines.
+
+Even if you don't use a Mac or in fact don't like the Mac design principles I think you'll agree that this skin makes Google reader, not only easier on the eyes, but also easier to use. 
+
+Unfortunately if you're using the [Better GMail extension][2] we linked to this morning to use Google Reader within GMail, the stylesheet wont work. Or at least I couldn't get it to work. 
+
+Even if it did there would likely be some namespace collision between the two pages.
+
+What would be really slick is a GMail theme to make the interface resemble Apple Mail or perhaps Thunderbird. Anyone know of such a thing?
+
+The Google Reader theme supports Firefox, Camino, Omniweb Safari and Opera, though additional plugins are required for Firefox and Safari. Full installation instructions and the download link can be found at [Hicks Design][1].
