Google Reader has been opening up more sharing features recently, giving users the ability to publicly share feeds and see Google Talk friends' feeds. Blogger Steve Rubel points out a not-so-obvious way to share only selected feeds with only a choice group of people. His solution:

• Add a unique tag to feeds you want to share (like "friendshare")
• Select "Settings" from Reader's upper-right menus, then the "Tags" tab
• Click the RSS icon on the tag you want to share. Share the "View public page" link only with those you want to see it

Now you've got a much more productive (and private) means of sharing select information with a project team or contacts. Neat!
