Feeds that expire
I would like an option to have feeds auto expire after a certain amount of time.
If I go away for a few days, I typically have 1000+ things in my Reader inbox. Most of them are old, and I don't need/want to read them.

Inappropriate?I think things auto-expire after 30 days -
Inappropriate?I would like to see an option to customize it for each feed/folder.
-
Inappropriate?I've waiting for this option, per feed and/or label, for a long time!
Please Google introduce this!

Inappropriate?I like this idea too!
When I'm on vacation or simply forget about it GReader has more than 2000 feeds to read and I want them to expire :)
I’m confident

Inappropriate?I like to follow some blog comments via RSS, auto-expire would be great for that.
Now I have a crapload of comment feeds which never update - unless it's a spam bot.
Per-folder expiry settings might be the best way to do this, maybe an email reminder after the feed has expired. "Feed XXX has expired, if you want to continue following it, click here"
I’m excited

@Shrike your definition of "Expire" is different from mine!
Mine is to mark as read OLDER then X, posts;
Yours seem to be, to not show any new content for feeds which the source is older then X.
Lets keep this ticket for the 1st definition, and please open a new one for yours. -
Well, they're pretty similar. Your idea is about expiring items within a feed, my idea is about expiring whole feed subscriptions.

Inappropriate?They're the same idea.
eg:
Folder: News, Action: mark as read, Duration: 10 Days
Feed: Woot, Action: mark as read, Duration: 2 Days
Folder: Webboard, Action: unsubscribe, Reason: inactivity, Duration: 30 Days -
Inappropriate?Google launched a dropdown that allows us to *manually* mark as read any feed or folder. now we only need to be done automatically :D
