The Feed Sidebar is an extension for the Mozilla Firefox Web browser that displays the new items from your Live Bookmarks in the sidebar. It is intended to be a lightweight extension of the RSS capabilities already included in Firefox, not a completely new feed management system. Installing the Feed Sidebar will add a new sidebar to Firefox that, when opened, will load the feeds that you have bookmarked in Firefox and display any unread items from those feeds. Clicking on an item will show a preview in the bottom of the sidebar, and double- or middle-clicking will open the item in the browser and remove it from the sidebar.
The Feed Sidebar will also notify you of broken or unavailable feeds, something which I wish Firefox did in a more obvious manner. The Feed Sidebar toolbar contains buttons to open all items in tabs, mark all items as read, stop the current feed update, force a feed update, and change the update interval.

Version 6.0 has fixed whitespace in history menu dropdown and replaced deprecated synchronous livemark API calls with new async calls.
