Have you ever wished that you could clip content to Current.com from one place? For example, many people use RSS readers to see the latest posts from their favorite places around the web, but what if you could clip those posts to Current directly from your RSS reader? What if you could customize your reader to allow you to post to any group on Current.com?

With the new release of Google Reader, you can. So, I put together a handy tutorial guide to get you set up. Head over to the Current.com Blog for the full scoop:

    • As Mario said. And any duplicate stories that get through will likely end up sinking as they often do. The community knows how to handle duplicates.

      That said, mario, the dupe checker needs some work. I noticed that the check failed if the url contained an argument, as the new york time does depending on how you first viewed the article. If the article were to be submitted with two different variation on the url it would slip pass the dupe check.

    • @MirrorLake not necessarily. you pick your RSS feeds for the reader, and if you try to submit the same link that has already been submitted our clipper will throw an alert with a link to the potential duplicate.
