“Subscribe” to blog or website RSS feed in Outlook

RSS feeds straight into your Outlook inbox from Steve Mays on Vimeo.

Let’s face it. Some folks are just never gonna wrap their minds around RSS. This point was driven home today when I was asked to find a way to have an email go out to every employee in our company whenever the Big Guy posted to his blog. That bullet might still find me but I’m hoping to demonstrate that you get accomplish the same thing with good old Outlook. I don’t use Outlook these days (don’t have it on my box) so if I got anything wrong, please let me know.

We use outlook for RSS feeds of our internal Sharepoint Blogs.

I’m pretty sure you did everything right!
