It's fairly easy to use, but beware, the minimum refresh interval is set at 10 minutes, and thus you cannot refresh more often than that. This is unfortunate since some feeds need to be refreshed more often and sources such as twitter support a much shorter interval than that. Considering Twitter's popularity and growth, I think the developer would do well to let the user make their own decisions for refresh interval instead of assuming that a more frequent interval is irresponsible.

It's not immediately apparent how to allow the viewing of links within a text feed without viewing the feed as a web page. However, you CAN view the feed as a web page and that makes it extremely convenient for feeds that often include multimedia content. It will happily load a twitter, youtube or blip page right inside the reader.

This is my first day, so I'll rate the reader highly as it seems well organized and so far is the only firefox rss add-on that almost did exactly what I needed. But making any http://blahblah text into a clickable link seems like an obvious option to have without forcing the user to view as a web page. No rss add-on I've tried does this.

The searchable folders are very nice. I'm currently trying to figure out how to organize groups of search folders. This is extremely useful for twitter users who might want to pick the names of people out of their main Home feed to avoid reading every tweet that comes by. And that home feed, for some people, needs to be updated every 5min or less. Twitter allows 150 feed updates per hour at the moment, so updating the Home feed every minute is well within acceptable limits.
