This also works for hashtag searches; handy for keeping an eye on hashtags (without worrying you’ll miss them in your feed). In my case, as our social media manager, I watch for mentions of Norwescon. Since that hashtag search URL is
<your server>/tags/norwescon, the RSS feed is<your server>/tags/norwescon.rss. (I’ve also subscribed to feeds fornorwescon45,nwc45, andphilipkdickaward.)
The feeds-for-users tip I’ve seen going around, but I’d not seen this applied to hashtag searches, so I gave it a shot, and was happy to see it worked. Figured I’d put both in one post for those who might not have known either.
