Does anyone know how to make the rss feeds on a my yahoo page update more frequently? I subscribe to quite a few and I notice that often the feed isn't being updated at all or it'll only show headlines etc hours later. I've already got the setting on a 15 minute refresh, but it still doesn't seem to work for some feeds. Perhaps I'm missing something or there's another way to do it...

Thanks,
Cristobal

Without being too technical, that may be a matter you cannot control. It could be that the sites you're subscribed to update their feeds, but My Yahoo! isn't aware of them updating their feeds. My Yahoo! and other readers are able to tell when sites are updated when they are pinged by those sites. That means that those sites have sent indication to My Yahoo! and other sites that they've been updated. I think you'll just have to put up with it, but look at the help pages in Yahoo! to see if there is anything else you can do.
