View Full Version : slickdeals RSS
How cool would it be to have a slickdeals RSS feed available in XML or RSS format. This way uses can show slickdeals information on their page and provide a link back to slickdeals.net.
Also, a Google Homepage tool. RSS can also be used on user's personalized MSN, Live, or Yahoo homepage.
Nevermind... didn't notice the RSS logo in the new features section at the top.

if you are using wap enabled device (e.g. a cellphone), you might want to try this.
There's http://www.slickdeals.net/wap.php for the homepage.
For the forum, it will try to auto detect if you're using a wap enabled device. There isn't a url to it at the moment but you can use http://forums.slickdeals.net/archive/index.php/?pda=1 to get the lite version. You won't be able to login or post though.
Good Luck :)

hmm....
compare that link to this one http://feeds.gawker.com/lifehacker/full
Under each link it shows a picture if it has it, and then it also shows a description. SlickDeals doesn't have it on the main page, but all the forums have it.
The WAP page is awesome.
