Can RSS or XML work in a blog such as blogger?

Title asks the question. Thinking of doing this somehow. Not sure if it will post new articles for each new bit of news.

 

What do you mean?

You want to broadcast an RSS feed from your blog to others or do you want to post automatically from RSS feeds from others?

 

The latter (I think). The way I would like it to work is every time a piece of news from a certain topic breaks, it automatically posts a new article (with the title) to my blog. Possible?

 

Yes, thousands of people do it. WordPress etc. have plugins for this though I have no personal experience with this.

 

Thanks Tops30. Now to find out more about Wordpress and that plugin.

Can't get wordpress to work at all. Stupid thing won't even activate my account. Hmmph!

 

Hmmm, this is all I could find for now:

I think I might have found what you're looking for:

Tyler,

This is pretty good. Now, how to get it to feed my blog.

 

Tyler,

I think I need help here as well. I can't find anywhere in Lektora to get feeds posted on my blog.

 

Is it this button?

 

Ahhhh! I am downloading Qumana. Apparently you need this to make the link between Lektora and your blog.

 

Now I need to install Java! GRRR! Where do I get that?

 

Right here my friend:

Thanks,

I am dl'ing it now. Found it on yahoo...hehehehe...it was at www.java.com...silly me!

 

Man! That took ages to download and install. OK! Now for Qumana.....Phew! Stressful work this. I hope it works??
