i don't use rss to follow people, i use it to follow output from particular publications and blogs i'm interested in. i don't think i'd gain any usefulness by displaying an avatar pic, i'm just trying to stay up to date on the happenings in the various affinity networks i'm part of or peripherally interested in.

Agreed, RSS is for actual information consumption while Twitter is for '@seeing and #beingseen #selfpromotion please RT! #lame @rss_will_always_be_better_for_objective_content'.
