Comments on: OPML feed take 2… http://tpn.thepodcastnetwork.com/2005/05/27/opml-feed-take-2/ Latest info and news on the network Sat, 22 Nov 2008 18:17:31 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.2 By: Phillip Molly Malone http://tpn.thepodcastnetwork.com/2005/05/27/opml-feed-take-2/#comment-81 Phillip Molly Malone Fri, 27 May 2005 13:36:58 +0000 http://www.thepodcastnetwork.com/tpn/2005/05/27/opml-feed-take-2/#comment-81 Hi Cam, No, or at least not in RSS Bandit. What this does is subscribes you to each feed you currently have when the file was created. In the aggregator there is individual feeds for each show. What I would like is like a latest updated feed (this mighten be any clearer). Let me try again. Image in your agregator you have one feed and when any of the blogs for the show is updated, it shows up in this feed. Microsoft have one here: http://blogs.msdn.com/default.aspx This has the most recently updated posts for the blogs.msdn.com domain (for want of better word). You can subscribe to this at http://blogs.msdn.com/MainFeed.aspx?GroupID=2. The great advantage to this (in my mind) are: 1) If you add a show (as long as the new one is added to the feed I perposed), I would automatically get its feeds. 2) If a particular blog/podcast that I am not normally interested in has something I am interested in, I would see it. 3) Only one feed instead of 20! Especially while the frequency of entries is low. Just my opinion, Hope this explains better. TIA Molly Hi Cam,

Even imports to a separate folder. Love yer work. If you do figure out a way to do what Molly wants, keep the OPML file. Makes it easy to introduce new folk to the network and art of RSS feckery.
