Feeds

There are a lot of different feeds available for the content of this website, if you choose to get it from an RSS reader rather than visiting the site directly. The main feeds for this site:

In addition to those content feeds, every post category (tag) has its own feed. The format of those feeds are:

  • http://oif.eafarris.com/tags/(tag name)/feed

For example, the humor category has this feed: http://oif.eafarris.com/tags/humor/feed

And the feed for the “typography” category would be http://oif.eafarris.com/tags/typography/feed.

Simple enough, eh?
