  The best RSS widgets for your site will be of your own choosing. What makes the most sense is to include links to the most authorative blogs in your niche ie. directly related to the subject matter you also blog about.

  Widgets are not “spicy”. Every one contains a link that sending Google juice somewhere. The rule of thumb for installing a widget of any kind is: “Will it enhance the reader’s experience?” If the answer is “yes” use it. If the answer is “no” it’s just more decorative “tat” (useless decorative objects that send Google juice out of your blog), then don’t use it.
