RSS Feed

It has come to my attention that many a blogger still doesn't know what an RSS reader is. So you got a blog. Since you like the attention, you buy comments by commenting on other blogs. You've got some bloggers that are on par with your inabillity to write quality articles, and there's some kind of unwritten agreement between you. They will read and comment on your dribble as long as you do the same to theirs.
So you got a nice linklist and maybe you even have a blogroll. Everyday you dilligently click every blog on your blogroll to see wether there is a new post. It takes about an hour but it is worth it.

WRONG!! YOU ARE SO WRONG!!! PEOPLE LIKE YOU MAKE ME SICK!!!

Wouldn't it be nice if there was some kind of program that would alert you whenever one of your favourite pages has a new post? You'd think they'd invent something like that now wouldn't you? I mean seeing as how computers are supposed to make our lives easier. (They don't.)
Guess what? There is! Some 14 year old kid with an addiction to porn came up with the idea of "RSS FEED". No I don't know what RSS stands for and I have no idea how it works, but then again, if that 14 year old kid ever gets a girlfriend, it would take me all of 3 minutes to seduce her. (Provided of course that she isn't underage.)

So here's what you do: You go to this page RSSREADER, press the download button and install the program. The instalation is quite straightforward and from now on every time you start up your computer, the RSSreader will start itself up.
Now open the RSSreader window and press "ADD". A little window appears with a lot of buttons that you don't want to press. Fill in the adress of one of the sites on your link list where it says: "Please enter URL or Feed", followed by: "/atom.xml". It would read something like: http://violenceandsex.blogspot.com/atom.xml (don't press that link).
Press "Next". Press "Next" again. Press "OK". And repeat the whole thing for every link on your list.

Enjoy.

I'm with Jess, this task will have to be reserved for a day with more hours left in it.

Whole lotta pressin' going on.

It would be cool though. Writer mom has it on her site and when I'm there I'll glance over to see who has posted. Yep, I guess I sort of rip-off her RSS.
