I've had good luck with Gregarius (http://gregarius.net) recently. It's 
web-based and requires that you have access to a server capable of 
running PHP/Mysql (it supposedly works with SQLite but I couldn't get 
that working) but I've been quite happy with it. I especially appreciate 
it for its web-based "river of news"-style view that displays unread 
items in whatever quantity you like--I have it doing so in batches of 
100. So if I've been away for a while, I just hit my instance and 
continuous-read my way through 100 articles at a time. All the articles 
are saved in my database for later searching.

A Firefox-based solution would be nice, though I couldn't find one that 
works as well. Live bookmarks seem to only display titles, and I've not 
seen a way to view article summaries on a single page. There are a 
number of addons that offer syndication functionality, but all the ones 
I tried were more or less inaccessible.
