I figure I'd post this here as it would likely apply to all apps that interface with the NewsGator API:
Asking for feature replication doesn't feel quite right.
I used to use Google Reader because I preferred it over NewsGator online, but I'm getting an iPod touch and the NewsGator iPhone/iPod touch interface plus NNW is a great combo. Up until today, Reader didn't really have anything over NewsGator/NNW, but the new "Share with note" social feature in Reader is what I'd like to see added to the NewsGator API.
I've been using Movable Type's Action Streams plugin to share links via various web apps on my own site, and the longer I've been utilizing it the more I've been wanting to comment on what I've been sharing. Google said it well: "If you are like me, you might want to share something in Reader, but think your friends might not 'get' why you are sharing it."
The ability to comment on sites I'm not subscribed too is also important. I think it makes sense that I can share other "news" items through the online news-reading service I sync my desktop reader to.

| Totally agree -- annotations for shared items would be cool. I've noted it.
