I only recently started using Rss, and i know how good it can be.

I really think Newgrounds would be alot better with it, you could check to see if there is any more news, check what submissions won the days awards etc.

Here are some suggestions for ones that could be made:
News,
Front-page flash,
Daily awards,
etc.

And it wouldn't exactly be hard, all it would require is at the most 500kb of webspace and a very easy, small code.

Yes? No? Maybe? I don't know? Can you repeat the question?

well, i am yet to look into how rss actaully works. but i think that it may jsut be somthing that will use up server power. obviusly not a huge amount, but i not sure that the NG community would benifit from having it.

Make it yourself? :P

It wouldn't be bad, and if you really want you can just make them yourself using some RegEx ;)

There's also a feed for the news knocking about somewhere, but I'm not sure how often it gets updated (and it needs fixing anyway).

Actually, the daily and weekly awards need some amendments, too, given that the spec for validation changed after I'd put those together.
