They gave us folders in Google Reader… so why is this still such a mess?

Update: I’ve modified the plugin to use a generic URL (
.../1/jquery...) which loads the latest 1.x version. That way I don’t have to change the plugin everytime jQuery is updated.The ZIP file has been updated, just overwrite your old
googlejs.phpfile and everything will be gravy.
In an effort to save bandwidth, I made a quick plugin to modify WordPress to use Google’s Libraries API, which offers a Google-hosted jQuery. Here’s the code in question:
function radr_google_js( &$scripts ) {
$scripts->remove( 'jquery' );
$scripts->add(
'jquery', // shortname
'https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1/jquery.min.js', // url
false // dependancies (none)
);
}
add_action( 'wp_default_scripts', 'radr_google_js' );
If you’re interested in using this on your own site, you’re welcome to download this quick plugin. Just follow standard procedure — unzip, copy to wp-content/plugins, and activate.

A while back I listed my wishlist for Google Notifier, and one of them was the lack of Growl support — instead they use a home-grown one that reinvents the wheel, so to speak.
Fortunately, someone created Gmail+Growl for Google Notifier, a Google Notifier plugin that replaces the built-in notifications with Growl notifications.
So that’s one item off that list. The only other one is support for Google Reader, but the Gmail+Growl software apparently is a “plugin” for Google Notifier. Thus, if there are plugins, then a plugin for Google Reader can’t be that hard.
