UPDATE: - see the bottom of this post.

I've tried to make it as easy as possible for people to subscribe to cat.net's RSS feed. I've updated it to RSS 2.0 (in other words, bit the bullet about the standards argument and just upgraded the silly thing). It's available in the same place it's always been: domesticat.net/syndicated.php

(For those of you who are interested, the feed for geek-chick.net can be found at geek-chick.net/syndication.php.)

I'm mucking around at the moment, trying to convince myself that I actually read enough sites to warrant the usage of an RSS aggregator. I'm pretty skeptical (since I read very few personal sites), but I'm giving it a go anyhow.

If you have issues with the new version, drop me an email.

UPDATE, March 21: I've added an RSS feed for comments as well. It's available at domesticat.net/syndicated_comments.php. Grab, eat, enjoy. Just be sure to wash your hands afterwards.

UPDATE #2: If your website's low on fur content, take a copy of this image for your site. It's guaranteed to cause sneezing and itching in all humans with feline allergies.

(It's on my RSS feeds already. I thought I might as well share.

Thank you! I've been reading your site via Newzcrawler for a while, and the old feed wasn't nearly as much fun (the full posts are wonderful).
You have an absolutely beautiful site. You mentioned that you just got an RSS feed going for your blog. I was wondering how do you do that? What are the concepts behind an RSS feed? And do you know of a good online tutorial for learning how to do RSS feeds? Many thanks Josiah296atcomcast [dot] net
Aw. Now I'm all sniffly. No, really. Get that damn cat button off of your site.

I was about to get pissed with the above commenter until I looked to see what email address he listed. -chuckle-

Yep. Stephen, being violently allergic and all, is allowed to protest. Note to self: really need to look into those HEPA air filters for the house. It's such a chore to scrub brain cells out of the carpet when guests have cranial explosions.

Stephen's worse than I am about it, and that's scary.
