    This weekend I was able to get 3reef RSS Feeds activated! 8)

    3reef Latest Posts
    [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]

    This will now allow you to add the latest 3reef posts to your Web sites, homepages like My Yahoo (click to learn how), RSS readers or aggregators such as NewsGator, soon many browsers, or even your cell phone!

    Now I am not going to pretend to know how to do all of this, but I've provided some links that get into it. If you have experience with this, please share so we can all learn too! :)

    Hahaha.. you know I was just wrestling with My Yahoo, it recognizes it as a valid feed (the rss2 version) and displays it real nice, but when I click the button to add it, it doesn't seem to really do it. If anyone figures this out, let us know!

    Thanks!

    A friend says this about My Yahoo:

    I hope they work it out soon.

    Regardless, for you super geeks, you can still add these feeds to your web site pretty easily with javascript or PHP.

    I just added the 3reef feed to my google home page (the My Yahoo version of google). Worked great the first time. Pretty cool Matt.

    Thanks for checking it out Marc!
    I got it going on there as well and I tried My Yahoo again and it seems they are working on it as we speak... After a few resubmissions I got it to work on that as well. 8) 8) 8)
