I've been fiddling with computers for about 25 years as a hobby, but there's
still a lot I don't know. Obviously I'm not a computer genius. For example,
I hear a lot about Ipods, and I guess I'll learn about them eventually, but
at this point have no idea what they are. Similarly, I know nothing about
RSS. If it will provide the same thing as the former "Releasing This Week"
on the Netflix website, I'm very interested, of course. But...how do I make
it work?
If I enter "feed://rss.netflix.com/NewReleasesRSS" into my IE6 browser
address window, it says "The page cannot be displayed". If I replace "feed"
with "http", it only gives a bunch of technical computer code. I'm all
ears...
