RSSMeme, the less colorful competitor to the newly re-launched ReadBurner, has just introduced launguage filtering to the system, adding another layer of usefulness to the Google Reader Shared Item aggregator. Since RSSMeme has an auto discovery process for finding new Google Reader Linkblogs (as opposed to the human selected linkblogs on ReadBurner), filtering out the noise of languages you don't understand is a very welcome improvement to the service.
The upgrade to the service comes as a result of the recently announced deployment of the REST Language API from Google. The API allows RSSMeme to query Google and determine what they've decided the language of the post in question to be.
