RSS Feeds now active
Posted: April 10, 2008 Filed under: WebBasedCron 1 Comment »Hi everyone,
In the post below, I wrote about how our email notification system is changing. Instead of sending email notifications for cron job failures and successful executions, we have now rolled out the first phase of our RSS feeds to keep track of your account. This single RSS feed will give an overview of your account.
If you login to your account, you will see the following RSS image: 
This will give you the RSS Feed for your account. You can use this Feed to view up to the second information about your cron jobs including last successful execution and the number of time it’s failed.
We are thinking through how to evolve this feed to include perhaps the last 5 successful cron job execution times. If you have any thoughts or comments please don’t hesitate to contact us.
Thanks,
George

hi
i find the rss feed not particularly easy to use – possibly because of the way bloglines works – so i have a massively long list of reports of all the jobs and their latest number of fails
would it be more useful to have the rss feed empty unless there is a problem and then display a generic message prompting the person to check their account/cron instead of a long stream of individual reports each time the number of fails changes?
