I noticed in Google Reader today that one of the options under View Settings is Sort By Magic. Anybody know what this actually does.

I noticed that last night as I was updating my subscriptions. I didn’t click on it, though, for fear that I may be turned into a newt!
See: http://googlereader.blogspot.com/2009/10/reading-gets-personal-with-popular.html or http://blog.louisgray.com/2009/10/google-readers-magic-finds-personalized.html
in short: sorts based on your personal reading habits and what Google thinks you’ll find more interesting.
Jason,
I bravely clicked on it and as near as I can tell I didn’t turn into a newt. A noob to this particular feature yes, but not a newt. I just thought it sounded cool.
Peter,
I knew I could count on you to explain all things Google. Calling it ‘sort by magic’ just makes you want to click on it. I may have to try that setting for awhile and see if I like it better. Thanks for the info.
