Don,
I'm tossing all of your questions out the 'Windows' because it's obvious
you haven't even tried it yet. heh heh :O)
If you use Firefox, there's a RSS reader built right into the browser.
IE7 may have something similar since MS is now basing their browser's
abilities on trying to keep up with Firefox instead of Netscape. Just
subscribe to a single RSS feed and see what happens. You're not going to
break anything and most, if not all, of these questions will answer
themselves. If you need a test feed, sub to the OCTT feed and you'll get
more than an education in how they work (simply because you'll be looking at
the same info from two different angles). You can find the sub button in
the middle of the page below.
