Mabye there is already (could somebody point me then)...

I think Bungie should add an XML feed for their main news when you first arrive at their site.

What do all of you think

No, I think an RSS would be better on both the main news and the group news. Coming soon. Maybe at the end of the month.

tease is a form of laxitive.

Hmmm, does this mean the feed will have the Top Stories as well as News? Or will they be two separate things? Personally, I'd love one to have both of them, but I'm sure some people would like the option of having either/or.

I suppose I could walk over there and ask you, but, eh...whatev.

Looking forward to it. :) (Even though I kinda know when there's something new posted cause Frankie jumps around the office going "I POSTED TO THE INTARWEB!!! I'MZ AM L33T HARDC0R3!!")

Call me a raging alcoholical lunatic (even though I don't drink..which is probably why I'm not a Mod ;-)) but I have no clue what this RSS feed thingy is. A little help?

How do you not know? Don't you guys have like meetings and stuff where you like...talk about what you're going to do? Wouldn't you at least sort of know what's going on?

I'm confused.

I think it's like a sort of news feed, which feeds the new and top stories straight to you. I dunno if i'm right, correct me if i'm wrong.

Well, there's probably an operational divide between those who code the game and those who maintain the community... I can't imagine they'd have meetings with all seventy-odd [that's right isn't it?] Bungie staff just to announce the posting of the latest humpday challenge...

Yes, that is right, VERY "odd"!
I don't know if 70 is right though.

Doesn't "Online Team" mean he works on the Bungie.net website? Actually, isn't he an artist? Maybe he does art for Bungie.net. I figured he would know if he works on the site.

I'm not sure exactly what it is. I'm pretty sure it has to do with cookies. And I think it like sends you the news items or something like that.

EDIT: I just found this explanation for them on 1up.com:

What is RSS?
RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is an XML-based format that allows websites like 1UP to distribute content to people who subscribe to feeds. Using an RSS aggregator, readers can draw in feeds from all over the web into the one program for easy viewing.

Since bungie replied and i know they are watching...

What are your hours because i want to blow bubbles at Frankie.

Why? He's ugly like a vacuum or that other person.

How ugly are vacuums you may ask?

How ugly are expensive dongle dangles is the answer!
