I mean, when you open Firefox and go to Tools\Options\Applications, there is a dropdown menu for handling rss feeds that lets you choose which application/web service you want to subscribe feeds with. iGoogle, which is a less obvious solution, is already there.
It would be of great convenience for Firefox users to have Google Reader there. So why not let them add it by providing an option for generating an appropriate xml file to open with Firefox?
I'm using Google Reader to track a lot of RSS feeds, and I have one very important feed that I monitor every day. That feed consists of thousands of items. Lately, I've noticed that Reader will stop pulling in feeds for a few hours, and it is really important that I keep on top of the feed. Is there anything I can do to find out if this is temporary problem with Google Reader? Or, is there any other advice you might have for me? I am thinking I need to switch back to NetNewsWire if I can't be sure Google Reader has me covered. Love any advice you can give me. Thanks!
I'm using Feedsmith as a plugin in Wordpress and that works great. However, when I try to pull an author-filtered feed I get redirected to the generic version. How do I work around this?
