About RSS Feeds

I just realized that some of you have absolutely no idea what they are, even when I consider it as one of the most important site features.

It basically allows you to "subscribe" to another user's blogs, using a RSS/XML feed-reading software. So, when you're surfing the net, posting in other forums or just chatting online, you can be automatically informed (with a small pop-up notice near your tasktray) about a new blog entry. It basically allows you to easily keep track of your favorite users.

There are several RSS/XML readers for free download. Just google for one. I'm using Feedreader (www.feedreader.com) right now, since it's compact and simple.

If you're using firefox, you can get an RSS feed reader extension called sage. You can even skin the feeds how you want! (if you know css… >.>). It's here anyhoo: Sage

I'm thinking about trying out other RSS readers though. The latest issue of PCWorld reccomends Abilon.

Sage rules. Really fast and sleak.
