One thing that Google Reader does not do very well is renaming folders/tags. I wanted to move some of my feeds around and rename some folders, but found it almost impossible. At first I was going to bite the bullet and delete my folders and just restart. I was not looking forward to doing this with my 65 feeds.

I then remembered that I could export my feed list to a OPML file. I did just that, then imported it to Feedreader. I was then able to do a better drag and drop, and rename. Then I had to export back out, then import to Google Reader.

The only thing that did not work work out was that when I imported the OPML file back into Google Reader one of the folders was missing. I’m not sure why but it was an easy fix.
