| 375621 | 2005-07-27 02:40:00 | Actually it is a Live Bookmark. When you go to a website in Firefox e.g. BBC News (news.bbc.co.uk), the register,etc. A little RSS icon appears in the bottom right. You simply select the icon and a message comes up 'subscribe to RSS' and then it asks to add a bookmark of the RSS feed to your list of bookmarks. I place the bookmark on my bookmark toolbar. This gives me feeds for; The Car Connection, The Register, The Inquirer, Anandtech News, Anandtech Articles, Secunia Vulnerabilities, MozillaZine, Slashdot, BBCNews. |

| 375623 | 2005-07-27 06:52:00 | On occastion. I find mailing lists better though | Edward (31) | ||
| 375624 | 2005-07-27 10:15:00 | I use RSS feeds all the time, although my RSS feeder is KDE's KNewsTicker. I just set up knewsticker, i like it apart from there seems to be no way to get it to open firefox rather that Konqueror. :( I've noted that my Gnome flavoured apps (gaim, evolution) open Firefox, and KDE flavoured apps (Kmail, knewsticker) tend to open Konqueror.... Hmmmm |

| 375625 | 2005-07-27 10:22:00 | I just set up knewsticker, i like it apart from there seems to be no way to get it to open firefox rather that Konqueror. :( Easy fix! Go to KDE Control Centre > KDE Components > Component Chooser. Highlight Web Browser and then select the radio button "in the following browser" and then enter in firefox and click Apply. Now try clicking on a news item. :) |

| 375628 | 2005-07-28 05:48:00 | I use RSS feeds some of the time (Thanks to firefox Live Bookmark), but most of the time I use rss feeds to keep up-to-date on what’s happening over at phpbb.com or on different phpbb related blogs.. | stu161204 (123) | ||
| 375629 | 2005-07-28 05:51:00 | Stu: Keeping up with the phpBB RSS is quick, but I find it plain quicker to subscribe to the mailing list | Edward (31) | ||
