   Personally speaking I star them to read later. When going through my feed I don’t always have time to read the item there an then. Hitting the star means I then have a list for later that I can read (be it on the desktop PC or on the mobile whilst on the train).

   It’s sort of like recording TV in a way.

   I use the starred item to fast tag some very interesting item regardless them categories.

   I use starred items to indicate RSS articles that look like they’ll take more than a few minutes to read that I think I want to check out. Very happy that this is not going away.

   I want Shared for things I like that my friends should see and Starred for things I want to read later.

   That’s pretty interesting.

   Would you want to share “starred” items as like an “UBER share”, like a recommended story, rather than a passive shared item?

   Let us know.

   I personally use the star to pool a list of good reads for the iPhone interface because once they are marked-as-read you can’t get to them through the iPhone (but you can if they are starred).
