    How about a RSS feed for the new posts page? That would be cool.

    Cool idea, but who would use it? As far as I know, people come to this site when they feel like it. There is lots of time to reply to most threads without making a "late" reply, whatever that might be.

    Won't happen.
    1. Porfiry has other things to do.
    2. RSS is a bandwidth burner. Bandwidth which we don't have.

    absane,
    the point would be that you don't have to visit the page. you can have the rss push you the new posts on a my yahoo page or wherever.

    avatar,
    one way to provide incentive would be to offer it as a service to paying members. could produce revenue while limiting the bandwidth concerns. just a thought.

    You know we frequently use search engines and general links dictionaries etc to support our postings; if its money you're after

    , why not have links to them on the forum, You run a survey as to which links are most desired in several categories and select the top 2 or something, based on unbiased presentation blah blah. Just an idea
