I might be going over the top here, but I really enjoy the time on the forums. However, having to switch to a browser all the time is starting to get annoying while I'm at work.

Having a RSS feed would be awesome. (Like gizmag does for their different categories, etc.) That way we can get our daily fix easily and don't have to keep clicking through to see what new topics are posted.

Im not sure what you mean by "having to switch to a browser." What do you use to browse the forums if not a browser?

Ah, sorry. It's my addiction speaking. I'm supposed to be working, but I have an obsessive compulsive tendency to come back to the forums to see if there's anything interesting and new. Thus switching to the browser from a different application.

Whereas having it ping up in my RSS feed client would be very nice, then I can simply read it like I would any other emails (Thunderbird)

Ah, Ok, I get it now. I agree, it would be a pretty cool idea, but Im not sure how feasible it would be. I will talk to Rush about it, maybe there is a hack or something we can install, but Im not promising anything ;)

Cool, thanks Fallen. I should get back to work now, but I'm too excited about all the knowledge slipping away beneath my fingertips. I just found the class specific forums and just wow!

Edit: Thanks for the update. Pity, but hey, I'll have an excuse to keep the Fox open now, no?

Hehe, Im glad your excited :D I have talked to Rush (already) and he says that it's probably not the best idea, and it would be a bit hard to implement. Sorry, Katya :(
