So long, farewell

This very well might be the last post here. Have no fear, dear readers (if any of you are left), I have not abandoned you. I have simply moved to the world of independent blogging. Visit my *new* *improved* happy fun blog at www.MetaKathryn.com ( Read more... )

Will you make an RSS feed out of your blog so that we can still read it from our friends page?

Sure, there's an XML feed of the blog. The address is http://metakathryn.com/weblog/atom.xml

that's a good idea (comment above).

umm... not to sound like an idiot but what are RSS and XML feeds and how do we get them on our friends lists?

RSS feeds stand for Real Simple Syndication. It's basically a way to get information that's on other sites all in one place so you can easily view it. In this case, you can syndicate (via RSS) my new blog so that it appears on your friendspage.

Here's what you need to do (it's simple):
go to http://www.livejournal.com/syn/ and at the bottom of that page, there's a little "Add Feed" text box, put either of the urls on this post into that box and press enter. It should make my new blog entries appear on your friendspage, and will for each new entry.

It's that simple. And kind of addicting. There was awhile when I had *tons* of things syndicated on my lj. I finally got annoyed and deleted them all. Mainly I think they were cartoons.
