Soon enough you will be able to post to the site via IM. Sorry (e:ajay) , I gave up on the hope of a perl solution and went with PHP ;)

I will begin offering other IM solutions for the site and I can promise they will be faster than the current estripbot which relies on a multi server XML connection. If this makes no sense to you don't worry. Basically, it just mean sthat you will be able to interact more with the site via the AOL instant messenger instead of a browser. n Okay, now I am off to go boating.

Microsoft is so trying to make up for being behind the times by making excuses. It is so typical of them to not provide their new Longhorn RSS hard-drive saving feature in Windows XP. That's outrageous. Are they trying to make people think that saving a small text file to a hard drive is high tech - too high tech for windows XP indeed.

I love how they say thatwith microsoft behind it, RSS can become a popular technology. It has already beeen popular for so long.

Thus far, Apple%u2019s Safari and Mozilla%u2019s Firefox browser currently offer integrated support for RSS feeds in their browsers. Microsoft hopes to do the same with Windows Longhorn and Internet Explorer 7.

However, Microsoft said RSS isn't a regularly used technology and with the world%u2019s largest software maker behind it, it could potentially make RSS into one of the fastest growing technologies. "It's cutting-edge technology but not something that would enlist a ton of new users," said Matt Rosoff, Analyst, Directions on Microsoft. RSS could become more popular if Microsoft builds into its Office apps features that consume information published that way, he commented.

Another different concept that Microsoft is planning on with RSS technology is opening it for developers. For example, Microsoft said it would leave the standard open for commerce sites, such as online retailers and music stores, to update the users with latest information.

The company added that it would make RSS integration available to Windows XP users as well. However, users won't be able to store the information locally on their hard drives. That's an exclusive feature to Longhorn, stated Microsoft.Quoted from: CoolTechZone::Microsoft plans RSS features for Longhorn
