RSS feed popularity on the rise:

Hundreds of thousands of web feeds are available, spurred by the popularity of web logs, which account for their bulk. One site that has been sorting feeds since 2001, Syndic8.com, added 7,326 in January - its biggest monthly jump - to its collection of more than 53,000 information streams.

7,326 new feeds! It makes sense to consider syndic8 as one of the first places to submit your new RSS feed. Still, in the scheme of things, 7,326 divided by 30 (days) is a mere 244 RSS feeds per day. Compare that with the number of websites that sites like Google receive and RSS isn’t even on the radar. But hey, small steps lead to big ones.
