Petra-related links, direct from the Guide to you

Post by Michael » Mon Feb 23, 2004 3:13 pm

I've started up something new on the Guide... it's called "RSS feeds." Anyone who is into blogging has heard of them most probably. It's just a kind of nice way to share headline-style information with people without them actually having to visit your site unless there's something they want to read there. Anyway, one of the coolest feeds I've instituted is a "Petra In The News" feed, where I'll post any and all links to Petra-related news articles that I see on the Web (watch out, if you post it here I'll probably send it up there! :) ). I'm not displaying them on a Web page yet (although I will eventually)... just on the feed. I have five links available already!

Now, in order to use feeds like this, you will need an RSS reader, or "aggregator" as they are also called. If you use Mozilla/Netscape there are some you can install as extensions (see http://extensionroom.mozdev.org/list.php/Mozilla/news); there is at least one for IE also (http://www.pluck.com). If you use My Yahoo!, you can add their aggregator to your My Yahoo! pages (http://add.my.yahoo.com/rss) and then add the URL of the feed to that. (Or if you downloaded an aggregator, you can use that to view Yahoo! headlines!)

There is also the possibility of other Webmasters displaying content from the Guide on their sites. I don't know how much interest there would be in that... maybe in the one links feed, or maybe even news headlines or whatever. But that will come later; for now, enjoy the links!
