I'm keen to start using the
Windows RSS Platform more, in part to try out
Doug's nice-looking
RikReader, and in part because I have another project which will probably use it. Although
lots of
people talk about how you can import and export your feeds from the Windows RSS Platform using OPML I couldn't find any explaination of how to do it, and searching for OPML in the IE7 help returned nothing. It turns out is is pretty easy if you know where to look - click the “Add to Favorites” button right underneath the forward and back navigation buttons in IE7 (or press ALT+Z) and choose “Import and Export...” from the menu. Select “Import Feeds” from the list of options and select your OPML file. Sadly my OPML file of a few hundred feeds from RSS bandit was not imported successfuly. I can see a joyful night of XSLT in my future.....
