This is absolutely not time consuming according to my knowledge, this can be done in less time that is took to tell :) For the advantage, I will take my experience. I find it less intrusive not to have to shoot a huge program to check if there is anyting interesting to read about. RSS is primarily to syndicate site between them. So offering a RSS or RDF feed gives the opportunity to others to present part of a site on another site. AFAIK, it is the primary goal at RSS/RDF syndication. There are plenty of advantages to offer a RSS to their readers. -- "GNU is my religion" .O. Xavier Maillard ..O Reims - France OOO +33 6 68 04 64 37
