I already bounced a couple ideas off Blake. If you’ve got properly IMAP compliant e-mail (GMail does not count whatsoever) then rigging up rss2email on a server would at least drop feed posts in your e-mail inbox to read. Evan Prodromou was mentioning a bunch of other web-based services that can be self-hosted and there are desktop clients available like newsbeuter, canto, liferea, and Thunderbird. Mike Linksvayer also mentioned Newsblur as a possibility though it was under heavy strain at that time as people were migrating to it hurriedly.
