Use keyboard shortcuts! It’ll cut your time in half. When I’m using google reader, my hand doesn’t leave the home row until I close the viewer tab (unless I’m on my mac, in which case they may not leave the home row until I exit the browser).

I also like to make all my folders start with different letters. That way when I’m using keyboard shortcuts to change which tag I’m viewing (“g t “) I only have to type one letter of the tag name.

I’ve also got it set to only display updated feeds. It always seemed overwhelming to log in to google reader and see a huge list of feeds off to the left, when in actuality only a few of them have new stories.
