Making Your RSS Feed Look Pretty in a Browser

As more and more non-techie websites offer syndication feeds, a growing number of non-technical readers are clicking on the links and filling their screens with confusing XML. The current method of subscribing to a feed--copying the URL from the link and pasting it into your newsreader application--isn't obvious to the new user. Filling their screens with markup or malformed text doesn't help endear your readers to your site's new feature.
