Nexus SC: The System Center Team Blog : System Center Vista Gadget to Be Decommissioned

Some of our friends in the community have in the past year made use of a Vista desktop gadget that we put together to send out news and announcements. Because of expense in maintaining the gadget and its feed, we've decided to decommission it, effective January 15, 2010.

But all is not lost! As a replacement, we would like to encourage members of the community to take advantage of the Vista/Windows 7 desktop RSS reader (check out this resource on the Windows site for help on how to use it)—or any other desktop RSS reader application that you prefer--and simply add to it one or more of the following RSS feeds:

• System Center (General): http://www.microsoft.com/feeds/technet/en-us/systemcenter/systemcenter_only.xml
• Configuration Manager: http://services.social.microsoft.com/feeds/feed/configmgr_feature
• Operations Manager: http://services.social.microsoft.com/feeds/feed/opsmgr_feature
• Data Protection Manager: http://services.social.microsoft.com/feeds/feed/dpm_feature
• Virtual Machine Manager: http://services.social.microsoft.com/feeds/feed/scvmm_feature
• System Center Essentials: http://www.microsoft.com/feeds/technet/en-us/sce/sce-featured.xml
• System Center TechNet Edge Videos: http://edge.technet.com/Tags/System+Center/RSS/
• System Center Team Blog: http://blogs.technet.com/systemcenter/rss.xml
• System Center on Twitter: http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/37764753.rss

We will be adding to this list of feeds in the months ahead—periodically check back on this blog for updates.
