How does this work?
FeedMyInbox is a very simple service that attempts to bridge the gap between feeds (RSS, XML, Atom) and email. If you would like to know more about what a feed is, have a look at Wikipedia.
Only 3% of computer users are familiar with how feeds work, and are using feed readers to get up-to-date information from their favorite sites. We don't think the other 97% should be left out in the cold, so now you can subscribe to a feed with your email address.
Step 1
Find the site you would like to track, such as a blog, a news site, twitter feed, or even craigslist search results. Most browsers will display whether there is a feed on the page or not. Look for the orange/white or blue/white icons on the right side of your browser:
Step 2
Once you find a feed you would like to subscribe to, simply type in the web address (URL) for the site on FeedMyInbox.com. We will find the feed(s) available on the page, and you can select what you want to subscribe to.
Step 3
Once you subscribe to a feed, we will send an email to the address you specified. Simply click the link that is enclosed to confirm that your email address is correct, and you are all set!
An email will be sent to you each time the feed is updated, but no more than every 24 hours (to cut down on inbox clutter). Whether there is 1 post or 10 posts to the feed in a 24 hour period, you receive them all in one email.
Each FeedMyInbox email will have an unsubscribe link on the bottom. Simply click it to unsubscribe from a particular feed. Nothing else is required—you will be removed immediately.
Sound easy enough?
