PC Mech News reader

I think it would be great if PC Mech was available for RSS newsreaders to collect the news off the site.

What's an RSS Newsreader (as opposed to any other type of news client)?

Is it a different protocol from NNTP?

David.

Drisley, great to hear that it is soon to come every time I come up with something I think would be cool it's already on the way. I can't wait. David_Jones - RSS stands for Rich Site Summary its XML designed for sharing headlines and other web content easily. NNTP (Network News Transport Protocol) I don't know much about but I'm pretty sure that has been the original news sharing protocol like USENET for example uses NNTP. Maybe some of the old school techies can explain better
