An RSS feed for what? New posts at BAF? Your own blog/site? Be more specific please about what you want.

As Kay said above, please be little more specific so we can take your suggestion in to considerations.

ownedbox I'm not sure if the VB software we use to run Business Advice Forum, automatically creates an RSS feed that we can share. I'm looking into it and I will post back when I figure it out.

Thanks for asking.

rss feed where the newest post in our blog will be displayed near our avatar. :D

It is possible to import external rss feeds into VB but I'd doubt what you ask is possible.

What you want something like this. If a post had a long name it would make the section on the left with the avatar very messy no? If you have a blog thats worth reading why not just post it in your sig?

Like the one in DP?
As far as I know, Fergal states before that he doesn't have any plans on having that kind of add-on here...

Thanks for that suggestion, we will look into that and see if it can be done in the future.

It is possible. There's an add-on for that which automatically updates your last blog post so you don't need to change your sig every time you add a new thread. It goes under your usergroup. The text is small so it's not intrusive. I like it and have followed many a link from them. :) If you update your blog frequently, it's just a "set it and forget it" way of always having your latest posts out there.
