PC101's RSS Syndication

PC101's content is now available for syndication. The feed buttons are at the bottom each page. If you have reader, let me know how it works!

I know, you need to get yourself a "reader" Sorry, I should have put that in my previous post. There are quite a few to choose from...

http://www.feedreader.com/

http://blogspace.com/rss/readers

There's a Google Reader too.

Once you decide which reader you want to use, all you have to do is click on the RSS at the bottom of the page, take the URL that creates (ends in =rss) and add that URL to your reader. Once done the reader will "reach out" and pick up the feed and present it too you!

The whole RSS thing is pretty neat because it saves you from having to visit 10 different sites to find out what's new on each site! If the site has RSS then the reader will bring you what's new! Kewl eh?

I'm not totally clear on the XML thang... I imagine it's similar but I've not used it yet.

Enjoy!

Lyte

Aww... you hate those things don't you! lol

I've got feeds set for every 720 minutes which one article every 12 hours and there are only four (I think) feeds. I can change them to once per day but give me some different keywords for topics that WILL interest you... and anyone else!

OR...should we just run the news articles in the column on the right of the home page? Those do not enter the forum itself.

Well, I dropped the feeds down to every 1440 minutes so that's just once a day. Lemme know how that works.
