Can we have titles in the AskMe feed?

December 23, 2004 10:42 AM

When I subscribe to the Ask Metafilter rss feed (using Firefox's Live Bookmark feature) only the title tags show, making the list come up as Question #123523, Question #675745, etc. Could the description tag be copied to the title tag in the RSS feed? Maybe the first 25 characters and then a "..." if necessary? Is there another way of seeing questions using this? Thanks.

yeah, I'm working on the new ask mefi posting interface, which will give good, rich titles.

http://www.xqse.com/feeds/askmefi.php takes the first 100 characters of the post as the title.
