Default RSS Feeds

hi, im new here and i thought i would join to offer this suggestion. i did a search for rss, and couldnt find anything.

but i think a rss feed would be really nice, letting people know when new eps become available and new news, not to mention i have an rss plugin for azureus that automatically downloads torrents, based on filters, from torrent rss feeds.

*Edit: since this is stickied now, i thought id post the necessary info up here! images/smilies/smile.gif

The feed addresses are:
http://gear.viper007bond.com/wp-rss2.php - (newer version of rss)
http://gear.viper007bond.com/wp-rss.php - (older version of rss)

if your reader supports rss 2 i would recamend the first one.

for information on what rss is and on some of the better readers visit this link:

yeah, my rss reader has a lil icon that will spin when new messages are available, and a box (kinda like msn messenger) will pop up with what it is. and the azureous plugin also reads the rss feed and scans for shows that i have set filters for, and will automatically download them.

This site does have RSS newsfeeds:

http://gear.viper007bond.com/wp-rss.php
http://gear.viper007bond.com/wp-rss2.php

The second one, I think, isn't used at all...

Yeah, I threw that in the last e-mail that went out.

And no, both are used. The first is RSS 1 and the second is in RSS 2. They are RSS feeds of the news on the main site.

Thread stickied and renamed.

Oh, BTW, what RSS reader do you use? I got to thinking it'd probably be handy for me to have one. images/smilies/smile.gif

RSS is a format in which to transmit data. It's usually used for like news and stuff. Click one of those links and see.

You can then get RSS readers that'll monitor the RSS feeds you tell it to and let you know when there's new data, like a post or whatever.

Get it?
