Two easy steps:
- Install FireFox extension Feed Your Reader
- In GreatNews Tools->Options dialog, click the button [Set GreatNews as the default feed aggregator].
Now if you click Live Bookmark icon in FireFox, the feed will be subscribed in GreatNews.
Update: FireFox 2.0 has built-in support for RSS subscription. You can now link GreatNews to FireFox by Tools->Options->Feeds.

The new tab function in build 326 caused some confusion in when GreatNews opens new browser window and when opens a new tab. GreatNews works this way:
- By default, clicking a rss link will open the link in the same tab. SHIFT+Click will open in new browser window. Middle-click will open in new tab.
-
If “open rss link in external browser” option was selected, clicking a rss link will always open in new window.
-
If “disable tabbed browsing” option was selected, all new tab functions will open in new window instead.
Hope this can clarify some confusions.
