FreeBSD Diary news feeds

FreeBSD Diary news feeds

This article tells you about the FreeBSD news feed.  If you want to know how to set up a new server, you want this article instead.   This article isn’t about news servers.  It’s about short blurbs you see on web pages which give a brief outline of recent additions to frequently updated websites.   You’ve probably seen these news feeds on websites such as FreshMeat, SlashDot, and Daily Daemon News.

How you can get the Diary news feed

You can obtain the FreeBSD Diary news feed in several ways.  Choose your favourite method.
