OK, since someone wants it, I've implemented support for Atom feeds
like the Google one posted above. If you want to try it out before I
release it - comments always welcome - then the latest development
installer is here:
http://download.webbie.org.uk/tests/WebbIE3.msi
It updates the whole WebbIE suite, of course. If anyone just wants the
updated EXE, just mail me. I've also improved feed handling, I hope,
so more feeds will work. Fingers crossed!
Best wishes,
Alasdair King
