From SitePoint's TechTimes newsletter:
We who work in the fast-paced world of Web development are used to chasing product updates, but with some products getting new releases on a daily basis, it's hard to keep up!
Macromedia has done all its users a favour by publishing RSS feeds for all its products. These aren't thinly-veiled marketing vehicles, either: Macromedia has promised that all the content in these feeds will be technical in nature, including TechNotes, security bulletins, and product updates.
Microsoft has done a similar thing for its security bulletins with an RSS Security Bulletin Feed.
Mozilla Firefox users can find out about the latest changes to the browser with The Burning Edge.
And any open source project hosted on SourceForge has an RSS feed -- or five -- associated with it. Look for the "View list of RSS feeds available for this project" link on the project page.
