RSS Feeds

I just love the Google Reader. Now I can read quick glimpses of everyone's blog within seconds. I do not have to click back and forth on the Discussion Board which was a hassle and I did not take the time to read as many as I would have liked to have done. I had previously had a Google Reader account, though I never used it. Now I know what I have been missing. I have to say that the reason that I never used it was that the interface was blah and boring. Maybe I can find a way to alter the background as some applications permit. I do want to discover how to make an RSS feed to one's own website. This would be very helpful.
