Just wondering..Who/what is this Win2WinRSS?? Some kind of Filipino news bot?
NO, Win2winrss is scouser for cut-n-paste news
Yes but does it never sleep??..
It Posts news not found in newspapers and other completely useless information 24 hours a day!
Perhaps Admin has it chained to a workstation in one of his abandoned sheep pens..:eek:
If it was useless people wouldn't be reading it would they? One of them being me, as it saves hunting across numerous sites for the info.

RSS (which, in its most recent format, stands for "Really Simple Syndication") is a family of web feed formats used to publish frequently updated content such as blog entries, news headlines or podcasts. An RSS document, which is called a "feed", "web feed", or "channel", contains either a summary of content from an associated web site or the full text. RSS makes it possible for people to keep up with their favorite web sites in an automated manner that's easier than checking them manually.
RSS content can be read using software called a "feed reader" or an "aggregator." The user subscribes to a feed by entering the feed's link into the reader or by clicking an RSS icon in a browser that initiates the subscription process. The reader checks the user's subscribed feeds regularly for new content, downloading any updates that it finds.
The initials "RSS" are used to refer to the following formats:
RSS formats are specified using XML, a generic specification for the creation of data formats.
- Really Simple Syndication (RSS 2.0)
- RDF Site Summary (RSS 1.0 and RSS 0.90)
- Rich Site Summary (RSS 0.91)
You can have this forum in XML if you wish Fred

Ok, ok.........
Can you try in the Queen's English now...???

Very interesting.
Could you tell me what XML means?
I guess I asked for it...............
Extensible Markup Language = XML
It's a simple language for supplying live feeds. You probably see them all across the Net without noticing.
