Does anyone know of a wallpaper changer that can update the wallpaper by an RSS feed.

I would quite like to have XKCD (http://xkcd.com/) as my changing wallpaper

lol I agree :P but back to the topic... I have never heard of a wallpaper changer that updates via rss, sounds to me like it would be pretty hard to do so! If anyone does know, would love to see it ;)

I suggest you find out the name of the program macs have built in that does that, and search for a windows conversion.

It is just in the System Preferences bit...

Like the control panel on windoze.

I doubt you will find a windoze port of it seeing as it is built into the system.

You will have to just search for a specially written program for it :/


EDIT: Search "Chaos Wallpaper" - It might do what you are looking for...
