Google is now telling you the total number of items you’ve read all time. For me, that number stands at 219,652 over these past (nearly) 5 years. I would have thought that would be pretty impressive, but apparently some people are much higher, because the Reader team notes that there’s a 300,000 limit on their tallies.

“From your 967 subscriptions, over the last 30 days you read 51,399 items. Since February 4, 2010 you have read a total of 300,000+ items.”

I feel this feature may be less useful to me than most.
