Vista FAQ 3. What does the RSS repository do to my feed reader?
. Not much for now, as IE and your feed reader keep their data separate. Before long, feed readers will likely be able to read IE’s repository directly, at which point you could subscribe to a feed in IE and read it in another program. Microsoft has said that it had this very scenario in mind when it kept IE 7’s RSS display basic. A currently available NewsGator download is a step toward this goal of open information exchange: It synchronizes your repository with NewsGator so that you can read all of your IE-subscribed feeds on NewsGator’s site.
