Three of the developers behind Nature's RSS feeds have written a paper clearly explaining the role of RSS in scientific publishing (via Danny Ayers). If you have heard about RSS and you haven't quite figured out what all the fuss is about, then I would highly recommend this paper. If you are already an RSS junky, subscribed to more feeds than you can read then I would also recommend it, as the authors describe their meta RSS aggregator and filter service Urchin. I am considering providing an Urchin service for nodalpoint, that is if people are interested ?

urchin?
I wondered if you moved on setting up Urchin? We've been struggling to create a build of that system over the last few weeks.

How about a "Live bookmark"?
Hi Greg,
I am not so sure about Urchin, but a "Live bookmark" for Firefox would be great.
Update: Woops, I didn't notice the XML link at the bottom of the page. Now, I created a "live bookmark" manually. All is fine.
Best wishes,
Michael
