RSS: How to do?

[Mike Cane]

I can't figure out how to add RSS feeds. I went to try to add news.com feeds, and whatever I do, I can't manage to make it work.

Help me, I'm an RSS eejit!

edit: tried this with the news.com site and I'm still <sob> crying... the screen is beautiful !!

Note: C/Net doesn't have a favicon and you will have to task/switch back to the newsreader after you detail read an item.. this has nothing to do with how the feed got there (I would think.)

Also, Mr. Newsreader does not understand scroll-by-stylus. Duh!?$@#

Mike,

I tried various ways and finally found a way not to type:

Browse:

news.google.com

Browse:

About Feeds

(below the main topics)

Browse: (the rss button)

Top Stories

Opera will show PBS (and I don't mean the News Hour !!)

Select the address area to open the keyboard

Button Dropdown/Edit/Copy

Select "General menu" (what do we call that icon?) and open Newsreader. (NO, not the desktop, the third do-hickey from the top in the left column...)

Button Dropdown Feed/Add...

Select the address area to open the keyboard

Here's the tricky part: Button Dropdown is ON STRIKE (sorry about that, chief!) when the keyboard is open so you have to:

Select keyboard context menu/Edit/Paste....

This puts the goods where you want them whether you are in Keyboard or Handwringing mode.

Hope this helps. (You even get favicons...)

OMG!

I think I actually subbed to jkontherun now. It comes via a feedburner URL, correct? Anyway, it's now in the News Reader.

Thanks *very* much!

Just fyi, no feedburner.com hosted rss feeds will work under Maemo's RSS reader.
