I have no SherlockRSS in my Sherlock. Maybe it's a 10.4 thing? Or a additional plugin?

Go to: Channels, "Other Channels", then wait a couple seconds until "SherlockRSS" shows up near the bottom of the list

EDIT: No, it's a 10.3 thing

Ohh I see. I didn't realize it loaded channels from the internet. It's like a small MacUpdate just for Sherlock.

hehe, thanks Quion. What is the RSS url of macosx.com? Firefox somehow found it, but I can't find the url.

Depends on the page, view the source and look for XML in the head.

I have OS 10.4, which I just loaded last week. RSS newsfeeds automatically loaded into my NEWS bookmark, so it's interesting that other RSS feeds can
be accessed through Sherlock (I didn't look there since I assumed it was all in the News section).
Is there any way to arrange and edit the RSS feeds by topic and to edit individual RSS headers? It looks like they can only be arranged by title and date posted, but if I could arrange them by topic and source it would make choosing what to read a lot easier.
Editing to delete what I'm not interested in would also be great. I don't see a way to do that either.
Thanks,
Rich
