RSS Blog Feeds

By Barry Ritholtz - November 5th, 2008, 6:30PM

We still are working our way through a long list of bugs and quirky behavior with the new site. Change is a process, and we are slowly grappling with it.

I have a meeting tomorrow with the software folk to discuss some of the suggested changes. I may even run a contest for a new header design.

A few adjustments seems to have the comments section running much better, with an increasing number of great comments. The biggest reader request involved various blog feeds, and a temporary solution is below (note that this seems to work better in Firefox than Explorer) :

The Big Picture:

No header, no tabs, every post
feed://www.ritholtz.com/blog/feed
This may be good for iPhone users, but it is unsupported on my Blackberry.

Check out the Venue M version for iPhone

Comments get their own feed also!

Comments

Please use the comments to demonstrate your own ignorance, unfamiliarity with empirical data, ability to repeat discredited memes, and lack of respect for scientific knowledge. Also, be sure to create straw men and argue against things I have neither said nor even implied. Any irrelevancies you can mention will also be appreciated. Lastly, kindly forgo all civility in your discourse . . . you are, after all, anonymous.

Your first link will work if you put it in Viigo for your crackberry. I don’t work for Viigo, etc etc.. but it seems to be a good feed reader. I just got a crackberry last Friday and now I am addicted….

Our IT allowed your domain through our firewall and I finally figured out how to post a comment. Things are looking up!

If you run into a problem, just provide a script of the video / RSS / article etc… to Larry Kudlow, he’ll be able to talk over anything …and it’ll come through loud “clear.”

Looks great BR. Still trying to figure out where “: my alter ego’s musings :” is on this site.
It’s nice little side track.

Keep up the good work!

The size and font in the comments is burning my eyeballs out.
I’m going to need reverse Dragon Speak in a month.

“Command +” and “Command -” will make the font bigger or smaller.

This IBM 600E laptop has Esc, PrtSc, ScrLk, Pause, F1 thru F12, Fn, Crtl, Alt and does not have a stand alone + or – except via shift.
Thanks for the heads up to do some investigating.
