i dont know if you're being sarcastic or not...difficult to tell with you!!

(RSS - Really Simple Syndication...applications allow you to keep track of almost anything that you could list!!)

I have BBC news and the inquirer podcast as rss bookmarks :cool:

BrenOS · 7 May 2006 at 13:11

Nope, didn't know.

Googled to find this but I really don't like the look of that.

Do you just basically get the latest news emailed to you?

BBC Sport | Football
BBC News | News Front Page

It lets you see the latest news in a list on your browser. As you can see, I have BBC News, Sky news and Sky sports.

I use RSS ALL the time!!.. Have subcriptions to:

BBC News
BBC Technology
A Blog
My Webhosts News
My Webhosts Current Status/Problems etc.

It's great, I just use Thunderbird as my RSS Aggregator as it means I don't need any extra software running etc.

On any website look for a little orange symbol in the URL box on the right hand side. Click that

Usually suffices me. Did have job feeds on RSS too, and occasionally I add others when I see the magical icon appear in firefox

i've signed up for millions - once i figure out which are the ones that have the best feeds (for me) i'll thin it out a bit...i always like having stuff to read though

Mr_L · 7 May 2006 at 15:38

I didn't know A List Apart had an RSS feed, I must add it. I really should spend more time reading websites instead of looking at the pretty shapes on them.

Eliot · 7 May 2006 at 17:33

engaget
gizmodo
bbc
empire
revoultion fanboy
engadget and gizmodo=best ones
