Sorry I didn't answer your other question.  With Feedreader, I just
leave it checking my feeds all day long.  It spins a tray icon when
there is more news waiting.  I usually read all the new headlines from
my feeds for 1/2 hour or so in the morning when I get to work and then
I glance briefly at any new ones that pop up during the day.
