Really Simple Syndication (RSS) was a nice advancement of technology. The ability to ‘subscribe’ to feeds and dynamically have access to content definitely simplifies keeping up to date with different sites. Sites that have a RSS feed available typically display or with a link to the site feed.

There are many different RSS clients available for the viewing or monitoring RSS feeds. I have been using Mozilla Firefox® for a web browser since its inception. There is a lot to be said about tabbed browsing, but the Live Bookmarks take it over the top and they are a great way monitor RSS feeds. The ability to monitor feeds from within a browser and without the need to install yet another application is wonderful.

Borland® has set up a number of feeds for their products and sites, the ones that I set up Live Bookmarks for are:
Borland® Delphi® BDN - http://news.borland.com/bdn_delphi.xml
Borland® Delphi® Code Central - http://news.borland.com/codecentral_delphi.xml
Borland® Delphi® Quality Central - http://news.borland.com/qualitycentral_delphi.xml
Delphi® Team Blogs - http://blogs.borland.com/MainFeed.aspx?Team=delphi

Some other feeds of note that I monitor (I won’t bore you with all of them):
