For the past month or so I have been using a desktop client for Google Reader called, Google’s ReadAir to efficiently read all my RSS feeds.
It’s still in the development stage but thus far I’ve had no problems with it whatsoever.
For those of you who read a lot of RSS feeds at once, this is a great option that can reduce the amount of time skimming through your feeds and clicking on headlines that catch your eye. It’s as easy as reading your emails.

Google Reader and ReadAir Are In Sync
One nice feature about Google ReadAir is that it’s connected to your Google Reader.
So if you still like using your Google Reader and add or delete a subscription here or there, that’s fine, ReadAir and Reader stay in sync (in reality they are the same account).

Installation
To install, you first have to download and install Adobe Air. Once that’s installed, you can download and install ReadAir.
That’s about it. It’s been easy to use and in my opinion, the user interface is much nicer than Google Reader.

Hi John,
So this is what you eluded to in your comment. It looks pretty handy. I’m definitely going to check it out.
How could I not? You have my blog name in your example. Love it!

LOL – it’s the least I could do for my dear Barbara!
The program’s not half bad. And it even refreshes itself while you leave it open.

Anything that helps read RSS faster is good. There’s only so much time in the day and I struggle to read everything.
