A lesson on Really Simple Stuff: m|ph on RSS


Want to feel like a real techie? Then subscribe to RSS feeds!! The next time your friends ask what you are doing in the computer (because it looks kinda complicated — these RSS thingees), you can just say, (quite nonchalantly) “I’m updating my RSS feeds so I can keep track of all my favorite news.”

Whoooowww!!

This feature has been around for a while, but for those of you who want to keep track of your favorite Pinoy mobile tech magazine, you can copy our RSS feed link. RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication - and this terminology is still kinda complicated to understand. In short, RSS Readers keep track of new site posts - so download one now for your computer / handheld to help keep track of your favorite tech weblog!

RSS reader

You can keep track of our blog for updates using these simple to use RSS reader applications: for the PC, you can use Rocket RSS Reader. If you are using a Mac, then NetNewsWire Lite is the way to go. The Pocket PC has ENewsBar while Palm has Hand / RSS.

You can look for the RSS link on the left column or just use this: http://blog.m-ph.com/wp-rss2.php.

Feel free to discuss your recommended RSS readers and feeds in our forum!

For Firefox users, RSS reader is incorporated in the browser, so no need to download an extra software for your PC.

For those of you who use title="Get Firefox - The Browser, Reloaded.">FireFox (THE alternative browser to Internet Explorer), you can use Sage, a lightweight RSS and Atom feed aggregator extension.

If you’re using Thunderbird (THE alternative email client to MS Outlook, Outlook Express, Eudora, etc.), then you already know that the software can also be an RSS Reader.

Personally, I find using Sage on Mozilla much better. :D

RSS, ShmarEssEss… I stopped using dedicated RSS readers since I “discovered” the built-in RSS function of Mozilla Firefox 1.0. Using this, I minimize the clutter on my office Windoze PeeCee

Hi there. I just had to post this somewhere…

I was wondering why ALL your covers have girls on them. There are gadget girls here too you know, and what’s preventing me from subscribing to your magazine are the GIRLS ON THE COVER. They’re a turn off.

I check my bloglines RSS feeds everyday to find news that I’ll post in my Library Current Awareness Service Journal. All the news I need comes to me except local sources which still does not provide RSS service. No time to try other web-based RSS services, it’ll just add to too many usernames and too many passwords to memorize, hehe.
