Well, this flies in the face of what Joel has been saying, but I have added a RSS feed for the NewsGator forums. The feed contains the 20 most recent posts.
I’m not sure this would work well for extremely high-traffic forums, but for the current volume in the NewsGator forums, I think it works pretty well. At very least it’s handy for me, so I can easily be notified when there’s a new post there.
The forums are using the ASP.NET forums code; if anyone else is using this code, and wants to generate a RSS feed from them, let me know and I’ll be happy to send you the code.
It’s kinda funny to pick up the export forum as RSS and then a little latter get the feed from http://www.rassoc.com/gregr/weblog/archive.aspx?post=553.
Btw, the | Comments link after your item is brilliant. Wish more did that.
Joel was saying (among other things) that it’s a mistake to let people receive replies to their posts via e-mail. Since subscribing to the feed means you get *everything*, not just the posts you’re interested in, you don’t have the problem of never seeing other interesting posts.
ne one know how i can get a background to be fixed and cover the whole background…if so please email me
