If you are just looking at a few RSS feeds, then using Live Bookmarks  
with Firefox, as others have suggested, will certainly suffice.  If  
you start viewing more than a few (say, 50 or more), then you'll want  
to start looking at a dedicated RSS reader.

My favorite on any platform is Akregator (http:// 
akregator.sourceforge.net/) although since it's only available on  
Linux so-far, I am forced to use Safari (not too bad) and Opera (a  
bit better) on occasion.  Akregator makes it very easy to manage  
scores of feeds in an arbitrarily nested hierarchy.
