Okay I was reading an Opensolaris blog and came across this little python script:

http://www.aaronsw.com/2002/rss2email/

runs on unix and will email new rss feed entires to you insted of you having a seperat feedreader.

Probably of use to windows users as well that have access to a unix box that they admin or can get ssh access to.

enjoy.
 
Yeah, I've seen this before actually and thought it was pretty cool.
Largely a matter of personal preference, but I like to keep my feeds separate from my email though. :)
 
hmm, that could work rather quite well. Just setup a mail rule to move and incoming mail from "x" address or with "xxx" in the body to a "RSS" folder and I could use that.

But doesnt Mozilla Thunderbird support RSS?
 
Alot of applications do. I'd use that purely because I can get my servers to do the hardwork and I dont really make use of RSS all that much, every time I try the RSS applications crash or bog down and I give up :p
 
I dont use anything other than Firefox Live bookmarks, only because i cant find one that does it like NetNewsWire for Mac. But now that im using IE7 i dont even look at RSS now...

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
