RSS is great - minor tweak request

Mar-30-10 11:27 am

I was glad to see more discussion of RSS as a way to avoid inbox clutter. I tried it and I like it a lot! Nice job on the web site! I use 'My Yahoo' as the news reader. I was a subscriber to the digest version of bbctalk and had some fear of getting my inbox cluttered with the individual forum subscriptions until I learned about the forum RSS feature.

One suggested tweak - can the three RSS feeds get distinct labels. Instead of seeing three feeds all labeled as 'BBC Forum', can you add one more descriptor so that I see the feeds labeled as 'BBC Forum - Rides', 'BBC Forum - Technical', and 'BBC Forum - Social'. I don't think I can do that myself in 'My Yahoo'.

Thanks,
Larry

You may be able to rename them in your reader. Rename affects the label you see in your reader, but not the feed.

I think I renamed mine... can't remember now:

2011 mileage=17,344 miles;2012 mileage=11,414 miles; 2013 mileage=12,169 miles; 2014 mileage=5,156 miles; 2015 mileage=6,200 miles; 2016 mileage=17,503 miles; 2017 mileage=4,454 miles;2018 mileage=6,749 miles;2019 mileage=4,139 miles;

Yep, I know you can rename them in Google Reader. As for other readers, no clue.

I concur. I've found the Google reader works well on the PC. And on my Android phone there is a free reader app you can download from the marketplace that works quite well.
