very interesting, because Firefox is what I am using in OS X. And I'm getting the full list in Firefox and search by tag or search by feed. interesting.

Lou, after reading about your Mac experience, I decided to try Google Reader on IE. (Firefox is my browser of choice.) Sure enough, I get a full (scrolled) drop-down menu! On the other hand I can search by folder on Firefox, which is generally what I shall want to do anyway!

I've been using it a bit actually. And I haven't had that problem. In my pull-down area all of my tags and all of my subscriptions as well. I would like to see an advance search capability at some point because I would like to search more than one feed but not all.

I'm not sure if Safari on OS X is supported, I surmise not. I tried using Google Reader there and the drop-down isn't working.

Sure it will take some time (probably matter of days) before we see additional improvement on the search area of the reader.

Lou, have you tried running the Google Reader search through its paces yet? At first I was very glad to see that I could restrict the search to a single subscription (like "Comments for correlate"). Then I noticed that only a few of my subscriptions were on the pull-down menu! What I found most curious was that "Reuters: International" was on the menu but "Reuters: National" was not! It looks like they peeled off the first nine (interesting number) items on my subscription list and ignored the rest! Hopefully, an "Advanced Search" button will come along soon, since I really do not want to deal with an enormous pull-down menu!
