Hacker News Reader

I think that's sort of what RSS was going for, but it doesn't seem to have really taken off. Maybe we need an RSS 2.0.

RSS did take off... Google released their free reader, which grabbed (probably) 80% market share with 1-2 engineers maintaining it. Then it was killed (to the VERY loud protestations of the internet) for no apparent reason.
