rssClient lets you pull down an RSS feed, cache it locally, and extract the most commonly used bits of information. Cache expiration can be adjusted. Getting the RSS file via http times out quickly, so it will never stall a page (you can adjust this upwards if need be). It can get a specified feed or a random feed from a list. It has one sample layout, and it's real easy to make others. Also a good place to start if you want to figure out what RSS is and how to deal with it.

Review Of:
rssClient in PHP :: XML and PHP
This script is perfect for a developer who just wants the barebones essentials. Some of the JS features don't work, and I had to modify it a little to work on my server, but it still fit perfectly for what I was trying to do.
