Reading Wordpress RSS in .NET aggregators
While we’re waiting for the Wordpress typo to be fixed (they don’t seem to be in much of a hurry, and the system’s users won’t update anyway), you can hack your RSS aggregator so it ignores the .NET security update and accepts to read Wordpress RSS feeds.
If you’re using SauceReader, you should open the saucereadergui.exe.config and add the following block at the end, just before the </configuration> line:
<system.net>
<settings>
<httpWebRequest useUnsafeHeaderParsing=”true” />
</settings>
</system.net>
If you’re using another .NET aggregator, the complete operation is detailed there.
Want to know when I post new content to my blog? It's a simple as registering for free to an RSS aggregator (Feedly, NewsBlur, Inoreader, …) and adding www.ff00aa.com to your feeds (or www.garoo.net if you want to subscribe to all my topics). We don't need newsletters, and we don't need Twitter; RSS still exists.
