grudknows.com RSS feeds

Yes... RSS feeds are now available for key sections of this website (they were demanded for the 'bored now' events list). These vary from being complete lists to recently updated items or highlights - based on how many items there actually are in each section.

You will need a RSS reader or a browser that supports live bookmarks OR a login account to customise the Google Home page or other pages that allow you to add custom RSS feeds to read/access the RSS feeds.

If you are using Mozilla firefox you can subcribe to/add the feeds as Live Bookmarks.

If the feeds are not auto-detected by your browser, you can manually subscribe to feeds using the subscription URL/addresses noted below by copying the shortcut/link address:

about

Live bookmarks (mozilla firefox)

Folks using a more recent version of Mozilla firefox can create what are referred to as 'live bookmarks'.

You do this by clicking on the RSS icon in the bottom right of the status bar and subscribing to the RSS feed. This will add a folder to your bookmarks that will automatically update all items as the file on the website changes.

If you do not see an RSS Feed icon at the bottom of the page, you may need to go to Manage bookmarks and create a Live bookmark (File > New Live Bookmark) and copy and paste the feed URL into the Feed Location field.

advantages of RSS feeds

The advantage of RSS in every day terms is that you can save time and check if there's anything new before visiting a website. Useful huh? (You can also cheat and include content from other websites on your own, but that's another story).
