Ask HN: RSS Reader that doesn't suck?

So apparently I'm a bit late with the whole RSS thing. I've always had a general idea of what they were, but I've never really looked into them before. I thought RSS was only delivered through e-mail =) I had no idea RSS readers existed up until a few minutes ago, when I was setting up RSS for my blog and discovered Google Reader through Feedburner. Conceptually, they are awesome. Visually, they are the ugliest things I have ever seen. Google Reader is messy and cluttered... and apparently it's the best one there is.

They make a lot of sense and I could see myself using one instead of manually checking my favorite blogs. I googled around for a few minutes and couldn't find anything decent. I figured the iPad would probably have something nice, and I was right. Every single one of the RSS readers for iPad look awesome - especially Reeder. Too bad I don't have an iPad. Are there any web-based RSS reader apps like the iPad apps? If not, I might just have to hack something together this weekend. This could drive me crazy.
