That's nifty, although, if I were to do something like that, I would take advantage of Google Reader's cache to take a load off of our 300Mhz, 3.4GB server

I also think that anyone using mine should set up a cron task to download/cache a copy of the RSS feed every minute or something, as sometimes it is unresponsive, which will throw a PHP error if it can't open.
Luke, you finally stated to use mysql, I am shocked. oh and just to let you know it wouldn't take any of the stress off of the servers because the SQL database is on serva as well, all servb is running is NFS so serva can get to it
