How to subscribe to Download Squad category feeds
We cover a lot of topics here at Download Squad. We cover software you can download, programs you can use online, Mac software, PC software, Linux software, news, information, and so on. Of course, we think all of the topics we cover are fascinating, but if you're only interested in specific items we cover, it's very easy to subscribe just to the categories or tags you're interested in.
Here's how it works. If you scroll down the page a bit, you'll notice a huge list of categories. Click on a category and you'll go to a new page with nothing but posts in that category. For example, if you only want to read about Mac software and news, just click the "Macintosh" category under "Platforms."
But what if you want to subscribe to a Mac-only Download Squad feed using your favorite feed reader? No problem. Just look at the URL bar in your browser. It should look something like "http://www.downloadsquad.com/category/macintosh/" If you add "rss.xml" to the end, you'll get a URL that you scan use to subscribe to that feed using Google Reader, Bloglines, FeedDemon, or just about any other reader.
You can also subscribe to stories based on tags. If you look at the bottom of each Download Squad post page, you'll notice a bunch of tags that we add to each story. Just click one and you'll see a list of stories using that tag. Again, you can subscribe by adding "rss.xml" to the end of the URL. So if you're just interested in stories about OS X 10.5 Leopard, for example, you can subscribe to "http://www.downloadsquad.com/tag/leopard/rss.xml" Easy as cake.
Just a quick warning. We're much better at categorizing stories than tagging them. So if you want to make sure you don't miss stories you're interested in, try subscribing to appropriate categories first. And we'll try to get better about using standard tags. Deal?

So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do.
Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game.
The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...
