RSS for the 2+2 Forum
Wouldn't a RSS feed for the 2+2 Forum be great?
For those of you that do not know what I am talking about, RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication. It is a "lightweight XML format designed to share headlines and other Web content. Think of it as a distributable "What's New" for your site." Kind of a way to have threads pushed to your machine. |

To see a sample of what it would look like, add http://www.billrini.com/xmlfeeds/2plus2_books.xml to your RSS reader.

Re: RSS for the 2+2 Forum
So does anyone use RSS? I sent Matt a link to an RSS Feeder for UBB.Threads. He in turn forwarded it to Chuck. Is it worth while? Have you never used a RSS reader?
I want it to read posts via my BlackBerry. I can't view the forums from work, and viewing the forum with the BB browser sucks. RSS feeds would make it easy to check my favorite forums during the day. |

Yes, I use it heavily, mostly news and poker blogs. It would be great to have it for 2+2. Might look at writing something to parse the HTML and generate the RSS XML over the weekend... if anyone would be able to host it (both the app doing the polling, and the generated XML)?

I wish I had more than enthusiasm to contribute, but I don't. I've been praying for 2+2 RSS feeds for a long time, this would be great!

Good progress so far, but it's sunny outside so I'm going out to get drunk. Should have a first cut for people to test tomorrow night.

Great! The link I provided does not work well via the BlackBerry.
