News-feeds, RSS, and XML something had to be done.
There is this great thing out there. It is called RSS. RSS is a data feed (In XML) of published information. The main information is news articles, but forum postings easily fit into the mix. Yahoo is a really good example of having one. Look at the links Yahoo has at...
news.yahoo.com/rss/.
Each of these RSS files is comprised of brief articles. Each article is comprised of a blurb, publication date and link to the full article. ThinkBling believes that Google's news searcher uses these RSS feeds.
Great things can be done with this info. "What" all depends on your needs or desires. For now ThinkBling has published a script that allows one to link together and search only the ones that you desire. Here's the links that relate to this.
