I've been trying both public and private, and neither seem to work.  I
have a personal apps domain account, and one that is run through a
university single sign-on.  When I authenticate under either of those
accounts and attempt a URL like 
http://spreadsheets.google.com/feeds/spreadsheets/
I get a 404 error.  When I log in via my normal gmail account, and try
the same URL it works.

I searched around a bit for google spreadsheets and "authenticated
request" and found 
http://code.google.com/apis/spreadsheets/developers_guide_protocol.html#authenticationToken

>From what I can tell, this means that every GET request header has to
be customized with the auth token.  Initially I was thinking that I
could just point a regular feed reader to the above URL, but duh...
the reader would need to authenticate on it's own.  After a bit more
research it appears that authenticating feed readers are few and far
between. And from what I can tell, even typical authenticating readers
wouldn't do the trick, because they use the "http://
username:[EMAIL PROTECTED]" approach, which wouldn't jive with the
expiring authSub token.

So unless there's something I'm missing there's no simple way to
say... set up google reader to subscribe to a feed of a google
spreadsheet.  I suppose I could write some sort of shim to read my
authenticated feeds and put them behind an obfuscated but open url,
but that just sounds gross.

Alas, thwarted?
