Suggestion: RSS feed of new posts by forum?
It would really be great if there was an RSS feed of the latest 10-15 posts by forum which could be used in various feed readers.
I believe vBulletin has the feature built in.

There should be a URL for the feed, somewhere. If you publicise it, people car choose to add it to their aggregator.
Eg:
Code:http://newsrss.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsonline_uk_edition/front_page/rss.xml
