One of the advantages of Windows 7 in comparison with Windows Vista is advanced personalization features using the interface of Aero. Among them - an interesting opportunity to use RSS is to create a slide show, which will be used as the desktop background.
 

RSS and files

The first difficulty lies in the fact that all the RSS-feed used to create the slide shows, must be in one place. This limits the choice, but I found a way to solve the problem as mentioned below.

Another difficulty - lack of built-in interface to create threads using the slide show based on RSS. We'll have to copy and edit write protected files of Windows.
