Why RSS gives me Julie Birchall at my beck and call

Yet another reason why RSS is A Bloody Good Idea. Byliner (which is a Bloody Good Idea in itself) is a site which tracks and aggregates articles written by your favourite journos and columnists. So if you’re a Julie Burchill fan (although I’m convinced most people only read her as a means to get themselves annoyed about something, which is a little like pricking a blister - not a pleasant action in itself, but calculated to bring about some form of relief) you can use Byliner as a way of tracking down la Burchill’s latest deathless prose.

The clever bit on top of this is that through the joys of RSS and Newsgator, I can have Julie’s ramblings delivered directly to Outlook whenever I click on the ‘Get News’ button.
