| Those of you who keep up with news, blogs etc. using RSS feeds can now keep up with Rockman in the same way. I've created an RSS feed that you can use in your favourite RSS reader. Now, about 95% of you are probably asking "WTF is an RSS Reader?". Well, if you have several sites that you check often, then rather than keep opening those sites up in your broswer and scanning down them for new things, you can use an RSS Reader that does all the work for you. Most RSS readers look like email programs, and new content on a web site appears like a new email would. You can sort posts by title or date (I may add other things soon), read messages and reply to them, all within the RSS reader. The reader checks each RSS-compatible site that you tell it about, every 15 minutes say, and let you know when there's something new. Many browsers and email programs now include this ability (but often not very well), or you can get a free standalone reader like "SharpReader". Rockman doesn't itself provide an RSS feed, so I've written a small program wot does. You can subscribe to it by adding this URL to your RSS reader: http://www.vaultsofheaven.com/rockman.xml It's currently updated automagically every 10 minutes. Here's a screenshot to give you an idea of what an RSS reader is like:  Dave | |
