Damn near the perfect RSS reader solution for the newbie

Finding and subscribing to RSS feeds is a bit of a hurdle for some folks. This solution makes it easy:

1. Use Firefox as your browser.
2. Use bloglines as your news aggregator.
3. Install the Livelines browser extension and configure it to add RSS feeds to Bloglines.
4. Whenever you are browsing a site that has an associated RSS feed (if its site maintainer has followed standard practices for publishing RSS feeds), you will see in Firefox’s lower right hand corner a Live Bookmarks icon. Click and choose the latest version of the feed that that site is publishing.
5. Bloglines will then ask you how you want the feed organized on your personalized page there.

Bingo – all done. No more “find RSS URI and copy, go to some form and paste, process.
