My Yahoo! - RSS FAQ

My Yahoo! - RSS FAQ -- Yahoo will consider an RSS feed for listing under their "add content" pre-selections, but there is nothing to stop moi, the reader, from adding some obscure fave blog's RSS to My Yahoo! You have only to paste the URL of the RSS feed, click on add content, click the snakey little add by RSS next to the Yahoo search box, and paste in the URL. Bingo its there. Very very easy. Anyone seriously publishing for others, which is not me for the moment, should generate an RSS feed.
Bottom line, My Yahoo! and others are becoming newsreaders. Seems more convenient than standalone, since I spend so much time in a browser anyway.
Plogger Dan and others are working on the beyond RSS, since RSS is inherently cloggy, if i may coin a new use of the phrase. Won't scale well as things get bigger. Or so it seems.
