RSS feeds on GS

Maybe some of you have noticed the orange coloured image at the top right corner of every forum page. It was added about 2 weeks ago. But it is only now that I am making it public. (have been testing it so far)

this one:

The orange icon allows you to subscribe to your favorite forums with your favorite News Reader instead of email. It would always be up to date and accurate.

Click on the icon and add the page in your own RSS Reader.

I use this one:
http://www.rssreader.com/

you can use any RSS reader you like. :slight_smile:

Have fun.

Re: RSS feeds on GS

I guess its not something to worry about.

It is the first line in the xml file. Which specifies the regional language settings.
I guess you can ignore it if nothing else goes wrong with the feed itself.

The feedvalidator confirms that it is a valid feed (have a look):
