RSS ... I'm Confused
Hi all,
I have a blog. What I'd like to happen is that every day, I'd like the blog's latest entry to appear on my hub's homepage, which is an html page and is completely different from my blog. Is this RSS? I thought it was, but now that I'm reading about RSS it seems to be something else.

you can offer it to him as an RSS feed or you can just put the html in an iframe...

Michael,
You can use something like this to include your contents on a regular html page..

If you are wanting your content to be syndicated by others, they can also use the same thing but put your rss url in the form to generate the javascript needed.
Im actually putting something like that together for Condom Cash now so im taking this learning curve with you haha
Right now im going to be offering a pure rss feed, a javascript based feed (like the url above) and also the iFrame option that Patti mentioned.
I have a feeling the javascript and iframe options are the simplest of the 3 to use.
Regards,
Lee

Yeah, I don't think you can have it on an html page just like that. An iframe, a javascript or switching to a PHP page is what you'll have to do.

I was under the impression that if Google saw the same copy too many times it would result in a PR downgrading - which makes me wonder about the Pros and Cons of RSS feeds/iframes etc.
Does anyone have any input about whether this is correct?
