RSS-to-JavaScript.com appears to be a good alternative to Alan Levine's Feed2JS service. Both of these allow you to repurpose an RSS feed in the style of your choosing simply by inserting a small snippet of javascript and some CSS code (both generated by these services) into your website. RSS-to-JavaScript.com also has a nifty little animated scroller available. With both services you have pretty much complete control over how many posts are displayed, how many words to display with each post, and of course color and style options. I've used Alan's pretty extensively, but have yet to implement the RSS-to-JavaScript.com in a production environment...
I tried to insert one of their scrollers here, but while it worked in preview, it didn't display on the actual posting. Don't know if this is because of the blog host or the service itself - ymmv, so do plenty of testing before full implementation! ;-)
