I tracked them down to here. _________________________ -Jim ...the sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament.

Bryce Bryce KiX Supporter Registered: 2000-02-29 Posts: 3167 Loc: Houston TX	well, one reason is you could run a RSS news feed on your local desktop, and see when new posts have been made. I personaly have a RSS collector on my website that i use to browse several interesting RSS feeds at a glance. http://isorg.com/?page_id=64

jtokach jtokach Seasoned Scripter Registered: 2001-11-15 Posts: 513 Loc: PA, USA	I use Attensa to aggregate RSS feeds from several forums/websites to Outlook. Yeah, more mail! It saves a bunch of time so I don't have to trawl them all several times daily. Anyone here guilty of that? You've got mail! You've got mail! You've got mail! _________________________ -Jim ...the sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament.

Yeah I suppose I could feed them off to a PST but I'm just as bad as users at cleaning up / deleting old mail. Using RSS alone or trawling doesn't leave anything but cache on my computer and a quick click of an icon and that's all gone too. RSS maybe, into my mail - no thanks. But hey - if it works for you that's cool too. In general though I don't visit as many tech forums as maybe some of you do so I like to trawl Korg myself. I've used a few RSS readers and soon find out I have TOO much to read and so I don't read a lot of it because the RSS takes time to read too. Good idea overall but Information Overload kicks in.

jtokach jtokach Seasoned Scripter Registered: 2001-11-15 Posts: 513 Loc: PA, USA	I save to a PST and Attensa cleans up at defined intervals. The default is to delete read posts after 3 days and unread at 15 days so everything is tidy. The problem I face is that I miss a lot from korg and other forums b/c I only frequently check two or three of the sub forums. One place to quickly scan the subjects of all forums is ultra convenient and beneficial for me. _________________________ -Jim ...the sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament.
