We have feeds
March 21, 2007
Hi Guys, I’ve noticed that we have a few people subscribing to updates from our site using the wonders of RSS feeds.
RSS What? I hear you say
RSS feeds for those of you not familiar with the term enables folks to read updates from a number of websites or new services all at the same time from a common interface such as a feed reader (a software package that you down load onto your PC).
There are a few services offered by the likes of Google and Yahoo that also enable you to view these feeds online.
Why am I telling you this? Well, for those of you looking for this kind of functionality, I’ve signed up an account with feedburner.com to enable those of you interested in getting RSS updates a little easier.
Clicky Here for details of the RSS Feed and subscription options (opens a new page).
Receive an daily update by email every time we update the blog.
If you have even a slight interest in what we are up to down under, another of the funky features offered by Feedburner is the ability to subscribe to blog updates via email. Basically if you subscribe, you’ll get a daily update on the days that we get around to updating the blog. If no new content or updates are written then no email will be sent to you.
This doesn’t mean that we don’t want to see you here daily checking out our forums and stuff
it might just save you five seconds of your busy lives checking the blog to see if the blog has updated to find the same old post
Clicky Here for the sign up form for email updates.
For those of you worried about privacy or being bombarded by updates relating to entries about my bum then be assured that your info isn’t shared and you can unsubscribe at any time via a link sent with any updates.
Easy Eh? Comments, questions then please feel free to post em!
