In reviewing the Wiki for my Kimball SCD component on CodePlex, I found that there had been some comments placed there that I'd never known existed! When I'd first set up the project, I sent the whole list of RSS feeds available for the project to Viigo on my BlackBerry. I soon grew very tired of watching my own activity pile up and obscure any interaction I may have been getting from other users - so I unsubscribed from everything except the Discussions and Workitems sections. Unfortunately, that caused me to miss two comments placed on my Wiki pages.
Well, I had to solve that problem! I've added a request to CodePlex (always better to fix the root of the issue, I say) - but who knows if or when they could solve it. So a quick Bing of the 'net (still sounds weird, but I'm giving it a shot) found me FeedRinse. It's a free service that basically allows you to place "allow" and "block" rules on any RSS feed, generating a new RSS feed from the results of the filter. The interface is very easy, and it certainly seemed to do the trick, allowing me to filter the project Wiki feed to only pass through articles with "Comment" in the title. Excellent!
Maybe it's time to filter some noise out of my other channels... mwuahahaha...
I noticed that you are a moderator on the tech net forum on the Microsoft site. I haven't found any information on the site nor have the customer service reps been helpful.
ReplyDeleteWhen does Microsoft expect to update the "References" function in MS Word with the new citation changes in APA and MLA?
Please email me at info@ccowebservices.com when you get the answer Thanks.
Unfortunately, I'm not a moderator of any Office-related product forums on Technet, and have no information on any possible upcoming Word features.
ReplyDeleteI must say that it doesn't sound like you've actually asked your question on Technet - otherwise you'd know that it is very helpful, and that it's completely community-driven - there are no customer service reps assigned to it. You'd also know that Technet is only an IT resource - not an end-user resource.
But I wish you good luck with your query - I recommend you post your question on Office Online Discussion Groups: http://www.microsoft.com/office/community/en-us/default.mspx. I'm sure someone in the community there can help you out.
