Facebook is somewhere I will

Facebook and twitter make posting updates easy

Dan:

Facebook and Twitter make posting short, quick updates on-the-fly quite easy from things like a cell phone or iPad, so that's why we use them. You don't need to "go" to Facebook or Twitter at all if you just use our RSS feed links as we show in the new RSS video on MRH Theater.

You don't have to join Facebook or Twitter, and MRH content comes to you via the MRH site through the RSS link.

So you don't need to miss anything even if you don't like Facebook or Twitter and never "sign up" for them.

The more in-depth stuff from the convention will be making it on here in the weeks following the convention - so if you don't care for these "live" posting tools, then just wait for the conclusions and hot news items to make into MRH.

Joe I don't own any phone but the one hanging on my wall.  I don't have an I pad or Iphone so these tools may be good tools I just don't use them.

But the content is still available

Dan:

The content is still available via the MRH web site here as RSS feeds. So it should not matter that it's sourced elsewhere - you should still be able to read it on your computer via this site similar to any other content we post.

I guess the next step is for me to do some coding so the RSS feeds drop their new content into the Recent Posts list on here?

Then would you feel these other posts were no longer "outside" this site if they became accessible in this way?

RSS rocks!

Dan, Joe is right. The fact that you can post to MRH is proof you have everything needed for RSS. Just click the little icon  and Joe's (and others) posts will be delivered to your screen without you lifting a finger. It is the only way to fly!

Thanks LKandO

I didn't know or realize what RSS really was and that it could be used on the Comp. I can Build computers and solder and De-solder PC boards but, I don't try programing. In Fact DCC is my first attempt at any kind of programing. I've always just followed the Schematics and left the programing to the Programmers

Joe Makes It Easy

Dan,

Just watch Joe's movie - click here. He walks you right through it. Piece of cake!

I'm with you Dan, BUT...

Hey Dan, I dislike, (putting it mildly) Facebook and Twitter, ( still not sure if that's it's name or a description of those who use it...wink) just as much as you do!

That said, Joe is right on all counts.

As for RSS, I'm like you with the building computers and soldering/desoldering, and I've also done a bit of programming, BUT I didn't get RSS feeds until I watched Joe's video. Duh!

I appeciate the "heads up" about the Facebook posts and go to browse them briefly but I am really waiting for the "meat and potatoes" to arrive here at MRH,`my prefered place to be a twitter!  [grin]
