Is there any chance of vB making a LiveJournal RSS feed for all their announcements?

What do you do with this thing once you've got it?

Stick it into any application that reads RSS files. There is a plugin for PHP-NUKE, Trillian and even Mozilla. I would guess if this Live Journal accepts RSS feeds it would work in that as well. Have never looked into that application though.

Yeah, it accepts RSS feeds without much trouble, you just have to set them up - I'll have a look into getting that done myself. I know there are well over a million members and about 600,000 or so are active, so I'm sure that a few people could use it to their advantage.

I'm currently using zfeeder to read RSS files:

Example on my site:

go to www.zfeeder.com (http://www.zfeeder.com) and download the file.

You edit the zfeeder.php with the feeds you want in the feed() section, upload everything to your space and link to it and you will start to get feeds from the sites you entered in that file. :D

Anymore instructions PM me or e-mail me, addy in my profile. :)
