The web would be much less useful to me without RSS. But I don't use the features common to most RSS readers. I don't care about tracking which articles I have 'read' or syncing this information across machines. I subscribe to so many feeds that there would be no value in that. There is no way that I could read all the content I am subscribed to. I just treat it like a stream that I monitor when I feel like it. My reader archives content indefinitely and indexes it so I can search it if I get curious. I will eventually add more features but it works for me in ways that no other reader I tried ever did.
