I've started using a really neat python (lingua franca at Ubuntu?)
script called newspipe:

http://newspipe.sourceforge.net/

Puts all my RSS feeds into my inbox, and with some creative Evolution
filtering, I can still keep things neat (I've got around 30 filters now,
numerous mailing lists, etc).  I point it at an OPML file (which can be
genereated from any blogroll software or any RSS aggregator) so it will
stay on top of any feeds I add or remove.

Just an alternative suggestion for those who are looking for something
else.  Before this, I too used Liferea, I just find it easier to keep
things in email.
