Everyone once in a blue moon, I get an email asking whether the Richmond Good Life (http://www.richmondgoodlife.com) has RSS…Nope…RGL is my homage to 1998 Internet (a simpler, better time). Plain old vanilla HTML, and I’m not going to change it. OLD SCHOOL!
For those speed/news junkies, I have compromised a bit by creating a twitter account: http://twitter.com/RichmondGL I’ll use Twitter (which you can add to any RSS reader) to announce any new updates to the RGL site. I usually publish twice a day (AM and PM). I will be using the following nomenclature to identify versions: V(for version)YYYYMMDDA/P…for example, V20081016P= Version October 16, 2008 PM. Here is an example of my first batch of 140 character limit tweets:
