A new blog has been added to the site:
External News.
This blog is used to publish external news from various sources on the internet. This is NOT our content and we only post excerpts to the original source.
We use the
Newsgator free web RSS reader to read the RSS feeds from a number of MCE related blogs and websites. The Newsgator service allows you to save certain posts from various sites and blogs into a folder called "My Clippings". You can then syndicate your clippings as an RSS feed. The External News list is this RSS feed displayed on the site.
We now have a way of selecting various posts from a number of sources and having complete control of what external news is displayed on the site.
del.icio.us also allows you to syndicate your own RSS feeds of the pages you have tagged and this is another source you can add to your external news page and we will be using this in the same way do add content to this External News page.
Clicking on a link will take you to the original blog or website that posted the content in the first place and you can keep track of the comments and updates to that post there.
Enjoy!
