Just take the showcase channels like slashdot, palminfoncenter and 2 or 3 others and see by yourself. It will take hours to build. However, I now have a list that takes a lot less (10 to 15 minutes with 15 channels) that I have taylored myself using spidering properties. In fact, the problem relies in pre-defined channels. BTW, sorry for my M$ Outlook clubersome quoting, what I have to use at work :( -- Florent _______________________________________________ plucker-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.rubberchicken.org/mailman/listinfo/plucker-list
