So what is RSS exactly?

RSS is short for “Really Simple Syndication”. It sounds like a mouthful but it is actually just a label. RSS Feeds enable you to get news feeds and updates on any topics that interest you fast and easy. You don’t have to check or be on the lookout on what’s coming as it delivers the headline, short summary and a link back to the full text every time an RSS news feed is updated. That’s why Google Reader is becoming increasingly popular these days as we have less and less time on our hands to actually visit each and every blog or news site we visit.

But hey, look what we have here!

iTalk Whoa! now has the ability to pull in RSS feeds too. But how is it any different then any other feed readers out there? Here’s why:

• If you have been worried about giving your name and email address to subscribe to any newsletter, the RSS feed in iTalk Whoa! has come to your rescue. Subscribing to RSS feed does not require you to do so. No more e-mails and no spams too. Your privacy is assured.
• You will get updates automatically on your iTalk Whoa’s account.
• For those who have got used to bookmaking pages, this is no longer necessary.
• If you are a content owner or publisher, you are able to distribute your contents without being sent to the junk folder.

Okay so now that we know we are able to include RSS feeds into your iTalk Whoa account, how exactly do we do it?

How to configure RSS feeds on your iTalk Whoa’s account?

Pop up box [RSSFeed Category Name] will appear and please input any name for the new group – example News

Automatically the News Feeds will appear in current Category Panel as below:

And that’s really it!

If you want to know more on this (which makes you a n00b!), MynJayz has just the example for you- read his post to find out how to to add Newsfeeds from http://thestar.com.my/!

Finally, a very Happy Festival of Lights, or Deepavali to you and your family from Spinzer.us!

Okay so some of you may know that I’m part of yet another community effort called the ParamKL at paramkl.com.my, which is meant to be your friendly PAsar RAMadhan assistant, right?

Well it’s almost over and after looking at all the food post, I really, REALLY cannot wait for Hari Raya Aidilfitri where there’ll be loads of open house by my fellow Muslim friends, and especially waiting for my bridegroom here who I was a ‘pengapit’ for to have one big feast ready!

Remember iTalk Whoa, the platform that gave you multiple choice of social media AND traditional mediums like SMS and such to connect with your friends both overseas and locally WHILE saving money? Well, it used to be a fact that topping up the credit was such a hassle, having to go to the post office yada yada just to buy a top up card. Until today, that is…

So guess what?

iTalk Purchase Online

Then I realised one thing: while #unifi ensures we get blazing fast connection, #iTalkWhoa! will ride on its stupendously fast service to provide a VoIP calls, SMS, push e-mails and all your other social media tools with total efficiency as well… Whoa, what a MARRIAGE!

True to my thoughts, the Launch at Borneo Rainforest also proved that iTalkWhoa – the “wonder” portal –  will be an enabler to allow all of us, young and old, regardless of race, religion and background, to better communicate with each other. Why do I say that?

Well, for one thing, we had various bloggers from different networks all meeting up for the first time since having to “choose sides”, and for me it’s an amazing scene! If you were here you’d probably know a lot of these bloggers as they have been around for quite some time

So it’s great to know that you’ll get to see all your friends under one roof, which is essentially the same concept of iTalkWhoa: the portal which is able to connect its users to multiple different websites and networks – including Twitter, GTalk, emails, MSN Messenger, Facebook and a whole lot more… all in the comfort of one platform.

Can it be any easier than this?

Obviously it was also the ripe time to camwhore or to shoot at all the hot girls here, that’s how everyone connects, isn’t it? Especially for the Original Buaya Yatz haha! ;p

Good to see a few others that I haven’t seen for sometime too… For example Suanie here and I, we go long way back. At that time I was supposed to marry her but I couldn’t well afford RM20,000 a month dowry fee haha!

Lots of other funny thing happened but I guess it’s another post for another day, eh? Before I end though, I just want to quote Mr Simon Seow, whom a lot were expecting not to be at this event that day due to another event happening at the same time… so the lot of us were curious, and asked him why. He replied “Of course I come here la, being here a lot of benefits mah!” along with other quotes best not mentioned here

We all laughed so hard cause we think that he’s really here because each of us got a headset as a free gift to use with our iTalkWhoa account, BEST kan?! Faster go get yourself an account at http://italkwhoa.com.my/ and register, cause I’ve already shown you how to do it in my previ0us post, so no more excuses for you
