Wicked Widget for RSS
Okay I'm not a great widget fan so far, but this one just grabbed me by the throat and screamed "USE ME! USE ME NOW!" And I know it's easy to use because I created the item below totally by accident initially by clicking a link in my Feedburner feed. It supports text, audio and I expect video too (gotta test that!). Really neat tool from Spring Widgets ! Try it out on your own or to see it spring into action on the fly.
And as Blue Peter would say "Here's one we created earlier..."
While I haven't played with it fully yet it does look like you can stack multiple RSS feeds into one widget too...

Cool:) Just finished listening to the converstion and was very interesting. Sounds like James will be off to live somewhere else soon for a bit. :)
Just taken a peek at the site for the widget for now but gonna look into it later. Dummy question, but is this something that a person could put onto their site as an rss feed for their site that visitors could look at?

Hi Kathy
If you mean a web based reader, to say, publish LinkShare pre-coded RSS from merchants, then yes very much the case. The code I used in this blog was simple to get, and they provide a wide range of ready to "copy and paste" formats.
Cheers

That is a sharp looking widget - I have seen this one in use on a local sportstalk radio station for their on-demand audio feeds
