on yahoo i have a 360 page that contaisn a blog and can also have an XML feed attached to it. such as the quote of the day site, or perhaps the latest post from a forum, or maybe even just the main index page.
basically im wondering if it is possible to have an XML or RSS feed from here. so i can keep up to date when i open my yahoo 360 and plus, more importantly, it may help promote the site.
what do u think Peter, is it possible and if so worth doing?

Well, I know we can inbound, because I've seen such things as 'Quote of the Day', on ForumUp forums.
And both our Vistor Counter, and the AquaBanner Banners, have two way traffic, talking back to their host sites.
I really know nothing about these 'feeds', and so I don't know the extent of what you may think we could do. I don't know about 360 Pages either, so that doesn't help.
The only feedback device I know of, is the flag you can set when you post, 'Notify me when a reply is posted', that sends you an e-mail. But it's on a topic-by-topic basis.
And Bettina has recently hinted that she'd like a Chat Room.
I'll have a sniff about on ForumUp, and see what I can come back with...

With only a cursory search at ForumUp, I found this:

In future add rss featues, but no have a date now. Many months.
Near are CSS + 2.0.20 and backup.
But I'll spend what time I can looking into it further. After all, the folks over there have always said, that these Forum Icons counldn't be changed!
