RSS/Feeds are all the rage. They have been for awhile. You have decided to put an RSS widget on your blog. You want all of your readers to see what interests you. This is fun!Until you run into the field that asks you for the "feed URL" Where are you going to find the "feed URL" ?

<h1>Answerbag has a widget for your blog</h1>
<p>2006-09-17T19:15:00.000-07:00</p>
Answerbag.com has the answer to Yahoo answers. I've never used "answer" that many times in a sentence before today. Anyhow, Answerbag, from the start, has some cool features. Number one in my book is the blog widget. You can see what people are asking and give answers from a blog widget. Any widget peaks my interest, but really functional widgets that require user interaction are my favorite.
