A blog I like said, "To subscribe to this blog, right-click the orange RSS button and paste the url into your RSS reader." I see the RSS button, but don't know what an RSS reader is."

If that RSS feed is send with the correct MIME type then clicking that link with the mouse should open a preview window with a button to subscribe to that feed.
