So you're flipping through your RSS feeds using
Google Reader, consuming news faster than any human being should really be able to. And you happen across an embedded YouTube video or audio podcast. For some time now, Google's been allowing you to view or listen to that file without leaving the Reader. But your media file will stop playing the moment you switch to another feed or folder.
But wait, what's that we see at the bottom of the screenshot? Google's added a "Popout" button to Google Reader. Click it when you see an embedded podcast or video, and the media file will open in a new browser window, letting you listen to
Chris Pirillo go on and on and on and on and on... while you continue to peruse your feeds.
