am probably contributing late, but i have recently worked on something that might solve this "rss hunger" or at least provide a better alternative eventually. am calling my creation "razor" and it runs right in the brwser, is totally free, doesn't sacrifice privacy to corporations, is customizable by the user (only knowledge of regular expressions required - in case one wants to craft their own feeds) i've developed my solution as a firefox addon, and you can download it from here -- http://fixx.yolasite.com/razor http://fixx.yolasite.com/razor i'd never used rss feeds before (probably wouldn't have invented razor then?), but razor is different and to me is more powerful! i use razor to check newest stuff from hacker_news using the following saved razor-expression: http://news.ycombinator.com/newest)))<a http://news.ycombinator.com/newest)))<a href=".+">.</a>%%%>[^<]<%%%[^>].[^<]((([0-9]+.ago---[0-9]+.point---\sby\s---^[0-9]\.$---^\s\(.\)\s$---^[0-9]+[ ]comment.\s$---^\w$---^\s[\|\[]\s$---^Feature Requests$---^Y Combinator$---^Hacker News$---^(News\s)$ It might look "geeky" and intimidating, but check the above razor link (it has docs too) and you'll see why this solution is promising. nice feeds hacking!
