	If you want to try it ... download Mozilla Thunderbird, THE free mail & rss reader, and I'll show you how to configure it to use the Progarchives RSS feed.

	Bump. Come on ... RSS is too nice a feature to just shrug and say "I don't know it and I don't care". Don't you even want to try it?

	I'm curious ... how many of you are using RSS? I think it's a great concept. For those of you who don't know what it is, how to use it and what the benefits are: It is a method of retrieving lists of recently changed/added information from a website There are many free tools to display RSS feeds, which you can install on your computer Many websites are offering RSS feeds for free. With most tools you can manage a huge list of RSS feeds, and combine them into one list. Why do this? The main benefit is that you don't have to visit those websites each day/week/month to find out if new content was added since your last visit. As soon as something is added, it appears in your RSS "inbox". You can filter out infos that you're not interested in, search locally for messages etc. If you need further guidance on how to use it or which software to use ... just ask. Edited by MikeEnRegalia
