I did a search and could not find anything on this topic, so I thought I would write a little tip.
You might have noticed the orange XML logo down in the left corner. It is a feed that can be used to view the last posts in a feed reader. I try to follow what is being posted on a large number of websites. And without syndication it would be impossible. I am using RSSOwl to read feeds and you can find more about it on Wisnaes.com .
What is not so clear is that you can actually choose what forums to watch and it is quite easy. NB! This will only show you new threads as far as I know. Not the follow-up posts. But for me this is good enough. I just need to know about interesting new threads or threads where I feel I can contribute.
In your reader of choice you add this link:
http://www.retouchpro.com/forums/ext...ss2&forumids=X
where X is the forum ID. If you want to know the forum ID, just go to your forum and check what number is displayed at the end of the address. The link to the Software forum is
http://www.retouchpro.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=9
So the forum ID is 9 and the RSS link for this forum is then
http://www.retouchpro.com/forums/ext...ss2&forumids=9
Hope this is of interest for someone.
