I went to the forum site but cannot find a place to sign up for an RSS. I<br>
haven't yet registered with the site and am viewing it just as a guest and<br>
I'm wondering if that is the problem but before I registered, I thought I<br>
would ask if that's the case. (I try not to sign on to many of those<br>
types of things to reduce my spam intake.)<br>
</blockquote><div><br>Guests can view all forums, so the RSS feed will work for you, it just isn't as prominent as it should. Kind of testing the waters, if you will. Links:<br><br>RSS: <a href="http://en.forum.laptop.org/syndication.php?type=rss">http://en.forum.laptop.org/syndication.php?type=rss</a><br>
<br>Alternatively, you can use the Atom link, which is an equivalent protocol, more or less. Six of one, half a dozen of the other.<br><br>Atom: <a href="http://en.forum.laptop.org/syndication.php?type=atom">http://en.forum.laptop.org/syndication.php?type=atom</a><br>
<br>Either should work for you equally well. At the moment, it looks like the feed is site-wide only. Going to make it per-forum, -category and -thread this weekend.<br><br><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
