In my last post, I have showed, how the new Google Reader’s user interface is so unfriendly, wasting more than 40% screen space. I came across, some user defined CSS to solve the Google user interface issues. I have modified the CSS by Ingmar Hupp to provide more reading space for news items. I am using Stylish addon for Firefox, to load the user CSS.
Google Reader’s Fixed GUI

Google Reader’s Stupid GUI
I am not a CSS expert, and this CSS has lot of issues, and it interferes with GMail and other Google products. So, I just disable it, when I am not using the Google Reader. The idea here is to show Google: how their GUI needs to be user friendly. Google Reader is basically a reader for RSS feeds, and any reader’s first priority should be to use the screen real estate efficiently.
