Wow. Nobody mentioned Sage yet? Sweet, simple RSS sidebar plugin for Firefox.

I find using Wizz RSS as a sidebar in Firefox the easiest way for me – I put all the related feeds in a folder to view them all at once. It got me from not using RSS at all to using it daily

I think it’s this line:

Or if that doesn’t work, then it might be one of these

I’ve been trying to implement this feature on my own site but somehow it never shows up in my mozilla firefox adressbar. Could someone please point out to me which code i should use to make it appear there?

As I use Mozilla Thunderbird as my email client, I’ve found it convenient to use it as RSS feed reader too. That way the feeds look just like usenet newsgroups (or mail folders) and you see instantly which ones have new posts.

It’s nice to see how people have different ways to read RSS. I tried using Google (both the customized page and google sidebar) but I didn’t like it. I might try something in the future, but at the moment I’m sticking with what I’ve got. Maybe in the future…

Feel free to bring more ideas and tell if you have found a good way to handle RSS feeds.

I suggest using Google Reader. Since it’s web-based, you can read the RSS u have subscribed anywhere. If you stick to a browser or software based RSS reader, you can’t carry it anywhere you like. Secondly, the interface is very intuitive and efficient to use, perhaps because it’s AJAX based. It also allows you to group the RSS you subscribed under category or tags you like.

Try it ;)

I use my Tungsten E2 to read RSS feeds (with AvantGo). That way I don’t have to be sitting at my computer to read them. It’s especially handy when you have to wait for an appointment or have a little bit of time to kill.

Unfortunately, sites like Gamasutra only give you a snippet of the article so you have to go to their site anyways.

I suggest you try the Opera browser, its feed reader is much better than Firefox’s, it works like an e-mail account, it tells you when there’s new content on each feed and you can read it in text form only, while in Firefox you got to remeber if you already read each feed item.
