Hello, can You please link to a tutorial or explain how to use Firefox's build in RSS reader to get notified about new posts i have subscribed to?

By subscribing i mean "Subscribe to this feed using" Live Bookmarks, i add bookmark and i do not understand how i will be notified about new posts. And if no, what is the use of this when comparing to normal bookmarking.

I was told on another site that FF does not support RSS notification (to my surprise), but i found addon called "Brief" and it seems to be working as expected.
