Other tech geeks here might agree that an RSS feature would be kick arse. That way we can port new posts directly into our news aggregators. Whuddya say, Sy?

I wouls say so K. Lets talk some more about this tonight. I need to pick your brain. Its alos good for those that cant access phpbb due to their work restrictions.
I'm no tech-geek but up for it....I'd think anything next generation would always put this forum ahead of others.
Sparta!!!
This is a great idea. If it can be done, then it would be asset for RepGeek.
N.
I am all for this.
Have no clue what you are talking about. Is this something that I can add to my Yahoo home page? I think I saw something about "RSS" there.
Xyphis, here's a technology that will have you addicted in about 5 minutes.
RSS 101: Sounds scary, but it's simple. At the bottom of many websites you have an RSS logo like this:

Just click on it and a new webpage will open up. Go to your URL field at the top of your browser and copy the funny looking XML address.
Go into your RSS Aggregator (an application that feeds different news sources into a single place) and click on "Add Feed." Paste the URL in there and now you're porting live news right into your custom built page.
There are many types of Aggregators and feed solutions out there. For instance, there's a FireFox plugin and a trillion apps out there like FeedBurner, etc.
Why an RSS feed?
Simple. You visit a gazillion sites each day and search for relevant information. It's time consuming. The RSS feed allows you to consolidate all of your information flow into a single place. No more site jumping.
Very good explanation man. I have started researching it looks very doable. Ill keep you update so you can help me test it out.
Thanx so much for that information. I'm looking into it putting it on my computer:cool:
sounds great!
Pleasure. I'm a 2.0 junkie so it's always fun.Quote:
