Pocket PC RSS Sync

I had a really bad night. Woke up around 2 Am and for some reason I couldn't get back to sleep. I went instead to my computer to do the best thing you can do on the web: research and read.



It turned out quite well as I stumbled upon something that made me forget my aweful night: an RSS sync for PocketPCs. I always wanted something like this: I spend an enormous amount of time every day reading blogs and tons of other documents that could be syndicated but once I was off my computer, there was no way I could read any of those. With RSS Sync which is an extension for ActiveSync, I can take all those reads with me to my room and everywhere I go. Isn't that great?



Of course, you can argue that I could use AvantGo (which I do by the way) but apart from CNN, BBC and some of the *big* news channels, not everyone publishes on AvantGo. So I think we, PPC users owe a big thanks to whoever is the author of this extension.



How does it work? It's all explained on the WEBSITE where I found it. I've already subscribed to all my current blog read! Yiiiiiihaaa!



I think I am happy enough to go back to sleep. And by the way, if you don't have a clue what RSS stands for, it's Really Simple Syndication. If you want to read more about RSS, have a look at "What is RSS". You can also read about the RSS specs if you're that inclined.
