I see a great deal more educational potential in creating RSS feeds than in subscribing to them. I can visualise my students logging into their computers/phone/iWhatever on a regular basis and there, popping up on their homepage is a feed about due homework, relevant links or morale-boosting super-humour.
Looking into how all this is done, it is not difficult (depending on server admin requirements). Programs like FeedForAll make it tres simple but even having a crack at the XML coding is achievable - particularly so when existing code can be cut-and-pasted and the content changed without violating any licences. I would really like my students subscribed to my feeds.
