RSS in Plain English

This is the easiest explanation for RSS feeds I have seen. If you love blogs, and have a blog, you really need to use RSS. (Rob this means you, please turn on RSS!)

OOOhhh...don't even get me started.

But seriously, i gave up poking you about it, cause i didn't want to be so darn annoying.

Now seems like a good time to mention it again.

This message...
Safari can’t open the page “feed://www.ian.mb.ca/rss/rss.xml”. The error was: “unknown error” (NSURLErrorDomain:-1)

is what i get when i try to access your feed from Safari. It also doesn't fly in firefox or opera.
IE just sucks. So it can't do ANYTHING.

ALL my other news and blog feeds work great.

Can YOU access your feed?

It's not like checking in is a HUGE deal, but a wise man once said "If you love blogs, and have a blog, you really need to use RSS"

Cheers : >)

heheheh Well then...I have been struggling to find what is wrong.

As you can see I even replaced my template trying to get it to work!

Turns out it was an skanky URL! You miss one thing and presto the whole show doesn't work!...

Should work now. I am still waiting as you have to republish the ENTIRE blog and that is taking some time.

I use Google Reader to summarize all the blogs I keep an eye on. Works great.
