Good RSS Feeds

**AndyP** · 27th July 2009 03:28 PM

What good RSS feeds are you reading?

I don't have too many yet, but it's one good way of being updated on things without having to chase them down.

I have a few Mac related feeds on Tips and Apps, a couple of specific music artist feeds, some torrent uploader feeds and Bruce's non-existent diary. I've also just added Dilbert's Daily Strip.

Not at all like newsgroups.

It's basically just an XML file that shows updates when polled by an RSS reader.

To save you having to check your favourite 50 websites one-by-one, you can get an aggregation of their current updates in one application.

I use Google reader and have it on my Google home page along with everything else. It is very convenient.

So could OzGolf have a rss feed or would that be too much work?

(EDIT: perhaps not.)

Although in my experience, very rapidly updated RSS feeds become worthless. It is more useful in checking news etc.

That RSS feed would be a bit too much, but maybe something for just the 1st Tee or Proshop could be handy.

I thought it may have been there, I've just never investigated it.

Thanks Courty. I've had a look at that one, but I don't think there's much I'd get out of it.

So nobody else has some good ones?
