For those who aren't aware we have an RSS feed running of Metropol, my question is does anyone actually use these things? If not I'll turn them off as it's pointless having them running otherwise.

Also please check your email address on the forum is up to date, just in case anything goes wrong / you forget your password. ta

I use Twitter Feeds, never got to grips with RSS, but do use some RSS preformatted widgets on Desktop ... As for setting up a reader seems a complex operation to me.

The thing is that they're not prominent enough. I can't see the link to them anywhere.

I use RSS feeds, but not for forums - I don't particularly like the way they're formatted, with posts from random threads all coming together in no real order other than that which it's posted. I only use RSS feeds for blogs.

No - but I would appreciate a mobile version again. Something that loads quickly and is reasonably well formated (ie a bit better than the mobile version of the other place).

I was just checking out the options for phpBB iphone templates. I reckon the Metro team could do better :)

I agree a mobile version would be great, but being a Nokia user I don't care if it's iPhone friendly - haha!

Never use RSS feeds and come to think of it, I don't ever recall seeing an RSS link or anything.
