You know, I didn’t know if you knew, but my blog — like many sites — has an RSS feed as part of it.
Lord knows I’ve found this handy, for the sites I follow.
Basically, I can go to a site that’s displaying one of the pictured logos — usually shown in the URL bar, at the top of an open browser window, and indicating it’s got a feed — and press Shift (⇑
), Option (⌘) and D, and whenever a site is updated, I get a potted summary of the post.
Now I know that’s not available to everybody. But it seems that Internet Explorer 7* has recently been updated to include the same sort of feature.
And that there’s quite a few RSS reader programmes around, including a few for those of us on Linux. Most of which are free.
And seemingly able to filter out unwanted spam!
Here’s hoping people would like to add me as a feed.
I’m running out of space of my mailing list …
* There’s probably a nasty comment about Microsoft catching up, there. Especially after I saw the Super Bar, and the idea of a virtual XP desktop in coverage of Windoze 7. And OS X stopped doing that, in Tiger. I’ve got a Mac, what can I tell you … ?
