Why doesn't ebaumsworld have an RSS feed? or is it here somewhere and I don't see it?

There are rss feeds for both our elinks and enews sections. Here are the links:

http://elinks.ebaumsworld.com/elinks.rss

http://enews.ebaumsworld.com/enews.rss

Also, because we have recently added daily updates, we will be featuring a daily RSS as well. It should be ready in the next day or 2.

Stay Tuned.

The message you have just read was too short.

for those that don't know, RSS is really simple syndication
basically a RSS aggregator reads the lists that you choose and spits out title and description to your desktop or wherever you want it. Whenever the site updates their rss list, it automatically updates what is on your desktop. This means you don't have to go back to the site every now and then to check for new links, it is automatically sent to you. A lot of news sites do it. There is an RSS feed in my signature. If you go to feedburner.com, you can find out more.

Jay- ever thought of putting up a page where other site owners can advertise their rss feed?

Shunffy, if everyone thinks it would be a nice feature, im sure we could find a vBulletin addon/plugin that provides one. Any vb pros out there know anything about this?

VBulletin should support RSS out of the box, but you need to know how to do it. There's also a hack to allow it, here's a link to help you with that.

Hope that helps.
