Greaaat...just what I want to hear: Data Loss At Google Reader

After launching my little experiment yesterday I'm confronted with this headline from several places: Data Loss at Google Reader.  Great.

Many people report losing their feeds but also in seeing them restored.  Follow the comments at TechCrunch and Scoble. 

If you're using Reader you may want to back up your OMPL file.  I can't say that I ever worried about data loss with Newsgator.  Everything was always kept safe on both my local machine AND the Newsgator server.
