I spent a few hours this week helping Bob Hirschfeld, Sr. Public Information Officer at LLNL Public Affairs. The main website at Los Alamos has a really nice set of RSS tools that are database driven. Bob was excited by that, but had a static website at Lawrence Livermore so he couldn't make that work for his site. That's exactly why he needed RSS DreamFeeder.
He configured RSS DreamFeeder himself, using his template and the Content Sampler tool and managed to get the feed working with a minimum of fuss. Simply selecting the text he wanted and sampling it. He had a bit of a problem processing the feed, but with a quick tweak and some direction (and his reading my article on webreference) everything was up and running in no time.
Its a good feeling to help folks make their website better with a tool that I made.
