So, the RSS reader I've been using has some issues... mostly in pulling in things it already has, and with some scripting debugging annoyance. And while IE has okay RSS built in... I don't use IE at home. FireFox's built-in RSS capabilities I just don't like.
So I downloaded Feedreader last night and manually added all my feeds, since RSS Reader's export format was not compatible with Feedreader's import format. Fun stuff. :P Luckily I'm only pulling in about 40-some feeds at home - I still prefer to read most of my news sites at the actual sites, rather than via feeds.
The feeds are nice for webcomics, lolcats, and daily doses of Overheard in New York, in addition to news feeds from sites I don't check daily - the UCC news, library feeds, and such. It's both a time saver and a reading broadener - stuff I'd miss not checking the site gets pulled in, and I don't have to check daily for updates. So it's a nice system.
