Helvetireader [Script, WebApp]

Helvetireader is a userscript to make your Google Reader absolutely gorgeous. In particular, it’s made for looking at feeds in the expanded view, using Keyboard Shortcuts instead of on-screen buttons. It’s not going to suit how everyone uses Google Reader, but if you are a fan of Helvetica font/style, this one is for you.

To run this script you will need  Firefox with Greasemonkey installed or alternatively if you are using Safari or OmniWeb you will need  GreaseKit installed. Here is also a great tutorial on how to get Scripts running in your Safari.

The creator also recommends installing the Show Feed Favicons userscript to add the final touches.

The Helvetireader user script is also ideal for using with Fluid.app or Mozilla Prism to create a standalone application. There’s even a Fluid App Icon you can use.
