The reason people don’t use RSS feeds as much is because they are not full-text-feeds. I say turn them to full text or just use them as a sort of internal messaging system.

I use Full-Text-Feeds with the http://www.Feedjournal.com application on my website http://www.Libertynewsprint.com
Its much easier to follow the feeds seeing them in an elegant full text newspaper format.

Cheers,
