RSS feeds to email - it's easy!

Tuesday, January 17, 2006

If you would like to have RSS feeds delivered to you as email messages, check out rssfwd.com. You simply enter the feed's URL, then your email address, and you're all set.

I set up a separate email address just for feeds so they are easier to filter.

You may shudder at the prospect of shoving even *more* stuff into your mailbox - but I kind of like the idea of reducing the number of places I have to go to manage information. Since I automatically file all feeds into an @read folder, they don't clutter up my inbox and I can scan through them at my leisure.

Note: you can't really manage your subscriptions by default from the site; you have to use the links at the bottom of the messages you get to access these functions.
