How to use FoF's sharing features
Introduction
Using FoF, you can create a public HTML page and public Atom feed of all or some of your subscribed items. Here's how:
Sharing all your items
- Go into prefs.
- Right under the thing that lets you change your password, change "Share no items" to Share all items".
- Push "Save Preferences". When the page reloads, right next to the sharing selector will be a link to a page that contains your latest 100 shared items, which also contains an autodiscovery link to your shared feed!
Sharing some of your items
- Go into prefs.
- Right under the thing that lets you change your password, change "Share no items" to Share tagged as "shared" items".
- Push "Save Preferences". When the page reloads, right next to the sharing selector will be a link to your shared page, which also contains an autodiscovery link to your shared feed. Right now, this page is empty.
- When viewing items now, there will be a little widget at the bottom of each item that says "not shared". Click it. It should change to "shared". Go back and look at your shared page. Magic!
- You can also share entire feeds. Just go into preferences and tag the feed as "shared". Now when new items come in, they'll be tagged as shared automatically, and appear on your shared page. You can selectively unshare items, if you like.

Wait, what's an item?
Are we talking about sharing the list of feeds we subscribe to, (something I'm wanting to do) or are we talking of aggregating the feeds into one? (something that sounds interesting)
"javascript:add_tag(68, 'shared')" in the address bar and "false" on a otherwise black page. :( No sharing for me.
blank not black
Adding the tag "shared" shares the item (article). When I click shared I see the same thing clark mentioned ('false').
There is an option in perfs to share the entire feed but I am not sure how this works once you have many pages. The share-feed appears as one long feed itself. Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be an RSS-subscribe option for it! I'm guessing this is planned for the next version.
