I would like the STEX and Forums to have an RSS feed because I find them very useful. Is this possible?

    Omg I cant belive you lot have never heard of RSS feeds. An RSS feed is a live bookmark which lists the new posts or entrys. This is an example from my bookmarks folder:

    Basically, an RSS feed is some kind of newsticker that can be viewed with a special reader or a browser with RSS capabilities (built-in or as plugin). It can list the headlines of the recent news on a site, new forum threads etc., and when you click on them, you can go right to the source (like a bookmark, as GingerBlokey explained). Just read the  Wikipedia article  about RSS.

    Yes that may be a good idea but it may require idealbb help and/or a lot of complex web making e.t.c. which may make it difficult to make happen.

    I would love to get an RSS feed on My Yahoo.  However, I don't think that it is going to happen.  It would be too much of a strain on the server IMO.
