Working on pulling twitter feeds into Google Reader and realized that the solution Google posts on their help page is no longer relevant.  Easy 3-step work-around:
  1. Paste the following into the text box:
    http://search.twitter.com/search.atom?q=%23xxxxxxxxxx
  2. Replace the xxxxxxxxxx with the tag (no #)
  3. Click add
Example: for #edtech paste http://search.twitter.com/search.atom?q=%23edtech

If you have an easier way or other suggestions for maximizing the PULL of Google Reader please share in the comments.

  1. That is an awesome tip. I love using Google Reader to keep up on blogs I follow and now I can add twitter hashtags as well. Thanks!
