Thread Safety

Public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are safe for multithreaded operations. Instance members are not guaranteed to be thread-safe.

Remarks

RssFeed works with RSS feeds. The RSS 2.0 specification can be viewed at: http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/tech/rss.

The RSS 0.92 specification can be viewed at: http://backend.userland.com/rss092.

Limitations: RssFeed does not work if the connection to the Internet is through a proxy. To add proxy support, you'll need to use the WebProxy class when making an outgoing connection. See http://scottonwriting.net/sowblog/posts/406.aspx#429 for more information.
