Google Operating System Blog has published a hack to remove the social component of Google Reader from the Web, doing so in order to use it only to read their RSS feeds without the “intrusion” by our friends.

All you have to do after opening Google Reader, is to paste the text into the address bar

javascript:antisocial('true')

, and then press enter. This will automatically refresh the page and make the ‘People you follow’ (Social Reader feature) disappear..

The setting is then saved in our Google account, to restore the social part just follow the exact same procedure described above, copying the text

javascript:antisocial('false').

Above you can see both the screenshots of how it looks afer the script is run and before the script!
