Yeah, am aware of that. I asked what he meant by RSS being "supported"
because it doesn't make sense to view RSS subscriptions from a browser
by visiting each subscription every time. :)
on that and you're offered the chance to "Subscribe to RSS". If you
do so, the feed's added to your bookmarks and when you look at it
there you're shown the links to every item in the RSS feed. Test it
with an LJ info page to see what I mean. It's useful as a quick way
to get back to something you read recently.
