Subscribe via RSS

My complete, full-text feed is:

Paste that in your preferred reader, and you’re good to go… or read below for customization options.

(What is RSS?)

Need an RSS reader? I suggest NetNewsWire (Mac) or FeedDemon (Windows). I’m not affiliated with them in any way, but I am an efficiency consultant and I’ve found them to be the best choice for a productive feed-reading experience.

Feed Customization Options

Everyone has their own particular tastes, and I want to respect that — so here are four ways for you to get all the Marina’s Musings you want, and none you don’t. (These tricks work on ANY blog running WordPress.)

1. Only want to subscribe to one type of content — say, my fuming rants? Click the category name in the right sidebar and add /feed/ to the end of the URL. This is the RSS feed for all posts in just that category.

   For example, to get only FUME posts, the feed URL would be:
   http://www.marinasmusings.com/category/fume/feed/

2. Only want to receive new posts containing a certain keyword?

   Use this feed URL:
   http://www.marinasmusings.com/feed?s=keyword
   (replace keyword with your preferred keyword)

3. Only want to subscribe to certain categories? A little trickier, but it can be done!
   
   Each category has an ID number. You can use these numbers to subscribe only to those that you want, or to exclude those you don’t.

   FUME: 16
   Groan: 14
   Laud: 10
   Moan: 4
   Personal: 5
   Things I Like: 38

   Get only Fumes and Groans:
   http://www.marinasmusings.com/feed/rss/?cat=16,14

   Get everything except Personal posts:
   http://www.marinasmusings.com/feed/rss/?cat=-5

4. If you’re really particular, you can combine these options.
   
   Only want personal posts that mention Seattle?
