Use Raspberry to make a Digital Photo frame

Question

I received my first raspberry, connected to my TV everything is ok !

I would like to use it as a digital photo frame where I get a RSS feed and I display photos on TV. I don't want to use a Web slideshow but a Linux progamm written on C, C++ or Java (or something similar...).

I would like the programm to run when I switch on the PI.

Any advice about an existing RSS photo reader or photos gallery on linux ?

Thanks
