News/Blog FeedsReading a News Feed in ThunderbirdThunderbird mail software (mozilla.org) lets you view RSS content as easily as reading email. Thunderbird normally displays 3 panes on the screen. The first displays your email accounts (each with an "inbox" and other folders), followed by RSS news accounts and subscribed feeds, and last, news accounts with subscribed newsgroups. The second pane shows subjects or titles, and the third displayed the selected messages or articles. How to create an RSS account

(POP mail accounts automatically download all emails and store them on your computer hard drive.) If you use a slow connection to the Internet, you can block download of images
in Thunderbird.
Firefox "Live Bookmarks"The Firefox browser offers access to RSS feeds through another option called Live Bookmarks (mozilla.org). Firefox Live Bookmarks (mozilla.org) are an easy way to check news feeds.
