A few RSS notes

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Mark Pilgram also has an Amphetadesk Bookmarklet that will let you subscribe to a site’s RSS feed in one click. That is assuming that the site supports RSS Autodiscovery, which is simple to setup. You just have to add the proper line of code to point to your RSS feed in your Meta tag area. For example, the code for my feed is:

“link rel=”alternate” type=”application/rss+xml” title=”Life of a One-man IT Department” href=”https://www.mikemcbrideonline.com/blogger_rss.xml” /”

So you can subscribe to the feed for this blog, or the Child Abuse blog easily now. Yeah, I setup a feed over there as well, in hopes that it starts to grow. 🙂

Aggie, by the way, supports the Auto-discovery function as well, but there’s no bookmarklet, yet. That’ll probaby change by like tomorrow at the rate things keep moving. 🙂

    Yes, I put the Web Hosting forum back in the forums section over my lunch today. So all the past history of the THC mess is, once again, visible to everyone. By the way, I’d also like to talk about other hosting companies, and hosting basics in there as well, so feel free to post…

    Finally a bit of time to breathe! I’ve been busting my butt most of the afternoon. Had a bunch of database projects get thrown at me at the last minute and have been trying to get all of my “pending” file cleared away so I don’t have to think about any of it this weekend….

    I was paying my cable bill just now and I noticed that the insert this month was for something called Time Warner Cable Home Networking, where Time Warner will install a wireless network for you, all for the low price of $14.95 per month, plus possible equipment and installation fees.
