+Lack of search remains the ban of many a Google Reader fan, but with the introduction of the new offline mode, Blogger Raúl Ochoa has come up with a [Greasemonkey script][2] that provides a stopgap solution until Google can get its act together.
+
+There's a couple of serious limitations, namely that you'll need a Greasemonkey and Google Gears capable browser and the search is limited to the last 2000 items since that's all that Google Gears indexes.
+
+But it's definitely the easiest solution I'm aware of for adding (albeit limited) search capabilities to Google Reader.
+
+And Ochoa says he's looking into ways to use a true fulltext search (at the moment the search relies on a "LIKE" query) as well as some way to "maintaining a database table with all the Google Reader items, and not only the ones that are synchronized with Google Reader."
+
+Perhaps, Google will someday figure out a way to add search to Google Reader, but in the mean time if you're desperate for a solution this one works.
+
+Note though that Ochoa's script doesn't work with [Jon Hicks' Google Reader theme][3]. The search box shows up, but won't accept input.
