hey, i just found that OS X Tiger has an RSS visualiser, which takes RSS feeds and flys them around in some kind of futuristic cloud

well cool

How can I make erutufon forum RSS ? Anyone know?

Very expensive apparently, it would be a break-through in forum technology if you pulled it off though.

Hi Cris,

According to this http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=36756 vbHome the software this forum uses supports the create of RSS news syndicates.

You can use Firefox to run RSS with Panther.

As for making RSS feeds, they are essentially just xml files. Wouldn't be too difficult to publish the forum posts as RSS I don't think, perhaps have a search of the vbulletin support forums.

That's funny Cris cos I noticed some forums have their own widgets to display latest threads etc... I almost posted yesterday to suggest you developed one ;)
