For a long time I was hearing RSS this and RSS that
Then I set up my own RSS construction kit thingee here:
http://www.google.com/ig

That allows me to have a RSS link to the Puppy wiki news page
Here is how Barry could construct something similar for his web page
. . . which might be the first step in combining these two pages - which I have already suggested.

Has anyone experimented with Liferea?

http://liferea.sourceforge.net/

The concept & goals sound a lot like Puppy (the avoiding extra libraries part).

"Liferea is an aggregator for online news feeds. There are many other news readers available, but these others are not available for Linux or require many extra libraries to be installed. Liferea tries to fill this gap by creating a fast, easy to use, easy to install news aggregator for GTK/GNOME."

Not sure what the GTK/GNOME requirement does to the size and flexibility.

Haven't actually tried it, what i know is that if Barry uses an RSS-ready ware, like a blog (Wordpress is one), his posts can be "aggregated" in a page such as the one you're describing...

(Learning about RSS seems overdue :oops: )
