I've tried several ways of finding RSS feeds. For my purposes, the easiest way, or maybe the best way for my purposes, was looking for the RSS icon on places I'd found otherwise that I knew I'd want to follow. Most of my computer viewing is one time specific purpose use, so the RSS feed would really be of limited use. But for those few places I want to follow and see the updates or new posts, RSS could save time.
As for the RSS search tools, I got mostly false hits from Technorati. The Google Blog Search gave me the best results of all the search tools and was easy to use.
I think that RSS feeds can work in the library setting as verifying that sites one uses regularly are being maintained and updated.
