CNE wants your views on RSS
Alex Singleton (London)  Personal views

I love the CNE's blogs to bits. They are eclectic, interesting, and at times controversial, and with writers like Brian Micklethwait and Antoine Clarke, they are compulsive reading. There's the CNE Environment Blog, CNE Competition, CNE Health, and CNE Intellectual Property, all making excellent reading. They have launched a survey to find out if people would appreciate an RSS feed. I know I would, because it is easy for forget about a blog for a few weeks if it is not in an RSS reader, but maybe I am not an average user. Let them know whether you think it would be useful by clicking here.

Comments

Of course, what the CNE blogs really need is more Worstall. Everybody always needs more Worstall. Odd that they never respond to my emails though.

Viewing this entry from my RSS reader and all, I wholeheartedly agree.

Is there any way to get full articles rather than summaries on the RSS feeds?

"Is there any way to get full articles rather than summaries on the RSS feeds?"

Three options:

1. Ask the site owners to change the feed.

2. Scrape the site and create your own feed.

3. Find someone else who will scrape the site and create a feed for you.

Enter anti-spambot Turing code:





Select some text and click this to format it as a quote Make the selected text bold Make the selected text italic Add a web link


Basic html active.

Alas, but for obscure reasons Mozilla, Mac and Linux users shall not harness to power of the push-button formatting options and shall therefore compose basic html with their bare hands. Yet Mozilla, Mac and Linux users shall not fear, for we shall reveal forthwith the mysteries of Basic Html:

<strong>This text in-between is bold</strong>

<em>This text is in italics</em>

And
<blockquote>This is a quote</blockquote>
Remember to close your opened tags as such: <tag> tagged text and closing </tag> and we promise you will get out of here alive.

For adding links, either use the link URL button on the toolbar or enter your code by hand in the following format:
<a href="http://www.your_link.com">your link text or description here</a>
