Watching Channel9

In response to Kent (view post):

I'm finding it very hard to keep track of things. I've subscribed to the "main" feed, and I get about 100+ messages a day that I normally just delete due to people just wanting to know why something is the way it is. In reality, I just wanted to get a feed of when new videos are posted...maybe I should narrow the feed down? Oh well, I've not really gotten around to it and it doesn't bother me to hit Ctrl-D 5-10 times an hour.

I guess the major thing that I would like changed, is if Channel9 did start posting a CommentsRSS feed, and then have NewsGator be able to grab those too. But, until either of those happen I guess its just very little surfing to & reading actual complaints/rants on Channel9 and waiting for those new videos to come across.

We'll be add a feed that just returns items highlighted on the homepage of Channel 9 soon.

If you just want to follow the videos via RSS, you can do so today by:

1. Visiting http://channel9.msdn.com
2. Selecting the Videos tab
3. Subscribing to the RSS feed to the right of 'The Videos'

What is the best spec for handling comments? RSSComments or Slashcomments?

I'll make sure I subscribe to that feed, like I said I hadn't looked yet.

I'm not really sure on the best spec, I think RSSComments is more supported, I know SharpReader uses that spec. .Text also uses RSSComments as well, so maybe thats a good thing to go with.

Thanks for the reploy Jeff!
