I started using NetNewsWire a couple of weeks ago to get RSS feeds. My surfing and reading habits have totally changed. I spend less time browsing the sites I used to visit, sometimes several times per day. Now I am presented with, at the very least, headlines that I can browse. Sometimes I may get an excerpt as well. I’ve been able to actually read more because I’m not spending the same amount of time surfing. I can’t tell you how much I love it. I don’t watch TV without TiVo and now I don’t browse (much) without RSS. Although it’s always existed, I haven’t drawn attention to the fact that there is an RSS feed of this site as well. While I may be a little late jumping on the RSS bandwagon, it’s clearly being adopted en masse.
RSS = TiVo For The Web…Kinda
I heart RSS very much, matter of fact, I read your post using it. I use Bloglines.com instead of NNW, because it keeps me synced at home and work, I’m always up to date. Oh, and you should make your RSS feed show us the full post, it cuts off…
I have been trying to mess with how much of the post it shows, but I’m not quite sure how to change it. I’ve tried a couple of things, but they haven’t seemed to work. I will keep messing with it. I also can’t figure out why it is stripping out the links that actually exist on the site. Pesky Movable Type…
