Q #1: What do you like about RSS and newsreaders?
Newsreaders like Bloglines, let you aggregate or collect RSS feeds or website data in a specific RSS format, that usually lets you, the user, put your RSS feeds into some kind or order or organizational structure. This helps us organize our favorite sites to read in one place.
I have used the first beta readers years ago... these were really simple readers with the only purpose of adding feeds. Today RSS Readers or aggregators have more flexibility and usability combining adding feeds, blogs and now have sharing abilities within their net application.
Q #2: How can libraries use RSS or take advantage of this new technology?
More libraries are blogging and taking advantage of adding the 
feed symbol to library web sites and library blogs to help keep their readers in touch with important news, updates and just about any cool library info in general.
Check out more readers via Google and see which one works for you. I now used Google Reader as my primary RSS Reader.
