Re: can you set us a rotating rss for a set of articles


Mitch - you have 100 articles on your site.  You want to send them out to
readers at the rate of 1/day for 100 days.  But these have already been
sent out I'm assuming.  I know you can do it manually by rebuilding the
page.  I don't know of software short of an autoresponder that would do
that.  But having said that, if there's a need for that somebody has
probably done a plugin on Wordpress for it.  ;-)   If not for a WP install,
I'd check with the javascript sites or have it coded yourself.

The possible danger here is that without changing the page, pinging it with
a feed has the potential to be seen by Google as spamming.  The rules with
the Big G are changing so fast now that I'm hesitant to say that it could
or could not be done - and I don't think I'd want to send mixed signals to
them given the way they're messing about with the structure now.  A whole
bunch of stuff is changing in the online world right now and the key is to
produce great content - over and over - not to re-release old content.  My

Sorry not to be able to be more helpful
