This link: http://www.fwallstreet.co... Is "Ooops. Page Not Found." at the moment. Great idea- I hope the SEC gets this set up on its own site asap too. Did the link to your feed creator die?

And there's still that 8% spread. Hey Joe – I’m curious what you think about the CCU workout. *Everything* seems to be in place for this to close this month. And there’s still that 8% spread.

Then again, I'm in front of the computer all day. I used Google for a while - nice, but I wasn't crazy about it. It is also very god with the dates, showing the authors, etc. In my opinion, Outlook is the most robust reader I've tried; then again, I've only tried a few. <b>George:</b> I sent you an e-mail this morning. Thanks for the nice write up! Hope you enjoy the service. <b>Dan:</b> I'm trying to catch up on more than 2,000 articles from Yahoo!'s Merger & Arbitrage Feed. Mostly fluff (and a garbage feed). I'll let you guys know when I know. <b>Adam:</b> The actual feed address (in this case, (http://www.fwallstreet.com/0001054833/edgar.xml) is an XML document which is then usually read by an RSS reader. You can subscribe to a free reader (e.g., Google Reader) or have it come to your Outlook. Some people can even have it appear on their home page when they get online. In Firefox, when you go directly to the feed, you won't see the date. I don't know why they do that. Take a look at <a href="http://www.google.com/reader" title="Google Reader">Google Reader</a> (it's free). Sign up, add the address to your subscriptions, and watch the news come to you. Google's Reader isn't perfect because it displays the date the documents were retrieved (<i>i.e.</i>, today if you sign up today). Hovering over that date, you can see when they were filed. Still, you can access it from any computer with an internet connection. Or, if you have Outlook, you can subscribe through there. As I mentioned to Jason, this is my favorite way to read feeds.

I shared it with my readers this morning at <a href="http://www.fatpitchfinancials.com/775/free-rss-feeds-for-company-filings-on-edgar/" title="http://www.fatpitchfinancials.com/775/free-rss-feeds-for-company-filings-on-edgar/." target="blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.fatpitchfinanc...</a> I must say that I'm impressed with the work of your web designer. I'm curious as to how the EDGAR RSS generator works. If you or your tech guy ever have a chance, I'd love to learn a bit more about your code. I'm always playing around with these type of "investor" hacks. Feel free to email me. Jason, I also use Google Reader and find it very useful. Joe, thank you for making this great resource available.
