New RSS Feeds for this Site

We have officially rolled our RSS Feeds live, and I'd like to provide a little explanation here in case you're not familiar with RSS or Really Simple Syndication.

Step 1: Get an Aggregator

First, you need an RSS aggregator or Firefox browser; these will allow you to save several feeds in one place and every time a feed is updated, the new information appears on your newsreader or on the bookmarks list in Firefox.

If you don't have Firefox, you can get it now. It's free for download. It's a great Web browser and you can set up live bookmarks (RSS Feeds) to show in the sidebar with your other bookmarks.

For Mac OS X users, Vienna has been reccomended. It's an open source program available freely for download.

There are many more aggregators, and you can even use Google's personalized homepage to show feeds. You can add the entire Climbing Gear Blog with this button:
Add to Google

Step 2: Get Some Stuff to Aggregate!

You can start with the Climbing Gear Feed. We have Atom XML feeds available in several categories, or you can subscribe to all new posts and you won't miss a beat:

All New Posts:

If you have any questions, feel free to contact mmcknight [at] climbinggear.com and I'll do my best to help you out. Enjoy!
