Ok, I've head a little about RSS and news feeds. What I want to know is what kind of news feeds are out there for free? What news feeds can I select the subject to read in?

Ok, here's the real issue...is it possible to tap a news feed w/o using any server extensions? aka, parsing it all on the client machine

You could create a XML style sheet to generate a visual representation of the RSS code. W3.org uses this method (http://www.w3.org/2000/08/w3c-synd/home.rss) using CSS.

I 'd disagree.
See the poster wants to process the rss feed on client side which means he/she will have to modify the rss/xml feed withing the browser.Which is almost impossible to my knlwedge(I'd like to know a way to do this as well;) ).
Because the news feed is obviously being sered by some other source ( such as yahoo, info world etc) and to insert a new line of code that will import a stylesheet will cause a browser security breach,hence browser will not be able to do that and you will be given an err along these lines

The best you can do is use some server side language such as java or php and serve the html to browser.
Here is a link, I am developing this RSS?XML feed ticker lately(mind you its in beta version as yet),but you will only need to add couple of lines of code in your page some where and walla..you have gotten y our self a news ticker(automatically updated at every refresh of a page).
as a matter of fact if you used it let me know how to make it better (its not completely bug free yet).
