Geeky Update: Added Atom and RSS support

Some folks choose to access Web Logs using a news reader or some such RSS/Atom reader. This is quite a good idea because it means you can see new Log entries appearing in the client much like receiving new email. This will prevent the gut wrenching disappointment of surfing to Ports Thoughts only to find there are no new entries :( To access the feed click on the icon on the left sidebar and all will be revealed. If you are looking out for a reader then http://www.feeddemon.com/feeddemon/index.asp is very good. If all of this sounds to you like it makes about as much sense as handbags for camels then just ignore it. It isn't important.

It would be remiss of me not to point out that a) Firefox has live bookmarks that are populated by RSS feeds, b) there's a free RSS reader extension for Firefox called Sage, and c) Thunderbird can also act as an RSS reader.

And of course, all the best sites have RSS feeds ;o)
