It is generally a singularly BAD IDEA to use browser-side transforms to
display RSS.  Especially not when used in page-load sort of scripts.

RSS feeds are made to be *periodically* downloaded.  Usually never more
frequently than once an hour.  Most feeds don't update more than once a day
so even hourly is a waste.

If you decide to use such scripts then be SURE you're doing it only with
your own feeds.  Don't subject some poor feed publisher to the abuse of your
page-scripts hammering their site.  It has happened before and it can really
cause havoc for the provider.
