(1) FEED GADGET
where you can add content (maximum of 5 entries) from ONE RSS or Atom feed to your blog.
(2) BLOG LIST GADGET
where you can add MULTIPLE FEEDS (with ONE/latest entry for each feed) of your favorite blogs.
Don't you sometimes wish you can combine both and display MULTIPLE FEEDS with MULTIPLE ENTRIES for each feed?
Thanks to Dynamic Drive's gAjax RSS Feeds Displayer, this is possible.
To be specific, you may find it in action at my sidebar: TECH NEWS FEEDS section. Here, my subscription list includes feeds with multiple entries from DIGG Technology, PC Magazine, Reuter's Technology, SEObook, SEOmoz, Slashdot, and Yahoo Security.
Using gAjax RSS Feeds Displayer, you can display results from multiple feeds intermixed, sort them in a variety of ways, specify which components of each RSS entry to display, and more. Dynamic Drive

How to customize the Feed script
<script type="text/javascript">
var socialfeed=new gfeedfetcher("example2", "example2class", "_new")
socialfeed.addFeed("Slashdot", "http://rss.slashdot.org/Slashdot/slashdot")
socialfeed.addFeed("Digg", "http://digg.com/rss/index.xml")
socialfeed.displayoptions("label datetime snippet") //show the specified additional fields
socialfeed.setentrycontainer("div")
socialfeed.filterfeed(6, "label")
socialfeed.init()
</script>
Below are the only codes that you need to change:
One.
socialfeed.addFeed("Slashdot", "http://rss.slashdot.org/Slashdot/slashdot")
where "Slashdot" is the title of your feed and
"http://rss.slashdot.org/Slashdot/slashdot" is the feed URL.
Two.
socialfeed.displayoptions("label datetime snippet")
where the display options can be set to include feed title ("label"), feed publishing date and time ("datetime"), and preview of feed ("snippet"). If you wish to include only the title and feed preview, kindly set the option to ("label snippet")
Three.
socialfeed.filterfeed(6, "label")
where 6 is the number of entries to be displayed and "label" is the sorting config meaning all feed entries will be sorted alphabetically by label.
