I'm using Safari Version 4.0.4 (6531.21.10) under Snow Leopard 10.6.2 and am
not expeiencing any problems accessing RSS feeds. Perhaps an uninstall of
Safari followed by a reinstall would help. As an aside, I use App Zapper when
I do an uninstall.

I'm also one that when encountering a problem first tries a reboot. I guess I
assumed that you had already done that. Glad things are again working!

I use NetNewsWire at home, where I read a number of feeds. But I use
Safari at work, for just a couple of feeds.

I haven't encountered the error you got, but occasionally Safari will
show an unread count for a feed in the bookmarks bar, even though there
aren't any unread messages. Restarting Safari always clears this up for
me.

Diagnostics, mainly. If logging out fixes the problem, it's a user
configuration problem, it you have to reboot, it's a system problem. In
general, just to get things going, I reboot.

BTW, I read the couple-three RSS feeds I follow in Firefox. As much as I
hate to say it, Twitter is pretty good at it too.

That's basically the path I took with it, though I skipped the
Newsgator account.

Google's Reader is excellent - both on the desktop and on an iPhone.
Their mobile-browser optimized version is excellent and very
efficient.

It's especially nice that since it's on the 'net, the whole tracking
of what's new and what you've read and such is all there and
syncronized regardless of where or how you are reading.

The downside, of course, for those who care (I'm not one) is that
Google knows what blogs you are reading. Since so many of them are
already using Google's tracking if you go to the site directly,
chances are that Google already knows you're reading a given site
anyway.

The upside is that it just works. And beautifully.
