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.silver-mosquito-943229.hostingersite.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. 🙂

    I noticed this evening that they’ve added a beta “browse bar” feature. Seems that, in a nutshell, you can use that address to simply browse from one bookmarked site to the next. Great for creating a to-read list, or even a nice quick check of a handful of sites you want to look at. Go…

    Yeah I finally gave in and created a Cafepress store, so now you can actually buy the logo on a tshirt or coffee mug, or a few other things. There’s the logo above, and there’s another GIF that has some various statements I actually hear in the course of doing my job. (The shirts come…

    Not only is it the end of the 4 day weekend, it’s also the first of the month. That leaves me with a ton of things to get caught up at work, all while trying to get back in the swing of things. I was most definitely not in the swing of things this morning….

    Lots of discussion about this post from yesterday going on around various places. Notably Geek News Central and Joy. To follow up Joy’s point, she’s right. I’m not going to sit here and tell you one version of software is better hands down, because it’s all relative. MS stuff is better for me in my…

    More reading on using networking as part of your job search. I’ve been reading a book about networking and going through all the self-awareness practices myself lately, so this is timely stuff. (BTW, another great use for OneNote, keeping all my notes and exercises on networking and self-awareness together in one section of the program..)…
