Feedback Wanted: Should I Provide a Separate Feed for Advanced How-Tos ?
The goal of this site is to provide computer help for everybody. When building a site like this, it's important to cover everything, not just the more interesting how-tos. This means there will continue to be a lot of simple articles like the last two.
Which brings me to my question…
Should I provide a separate feed for advanced how-tos?
This really means:
Should I provide a separate feed for advanced users, that only lists the more advanced how-tos?

not required
In my opinion it's not necessary because you choose what is interesting for you. If you read some post that it seems advanced for you, you stop reading and check another post, but you also can bookmark that advanced post for the future when that becomes useful for you (because you have learnt a lot or something).
Congratulations for the site, i really enjoy all the posts
Greets from Spain and merry Xmas!
Sounds good, I probably won't bother with it.
Please leave it all in one feed and let us decide what's 'advanced' and what isn't. Everyone has a different meaning for the word.
I think it is much better. Advanced users probably will look more in the advanced how-tos and articles! Good site! I enjoyed it even it is my first time to visit the site. More power to the Geeks!!!
It is all right, keeping everything at one place as the advanced varies from person to person. good site, I love it
really not i think.
some advanced users may still get advantage from simple how-tos, who can assure that he knows every simple tip?
let's enjoy this site, with a ready-to-learn spirit
Hi Geek,
Love your website ! It's awesome. Still I believe a link to a more advanced section of the HOW-TO-GEEK would be an advantage. It would satisfy both parties. The main site still the way it is now, easy to understand and follow up and a link for the more curious pc-users to the advanced part of HTG.
BUT, I would like to see advanced tips, as I can perform quite well on the computer with directions as clear as you give them! I love the site, as this is my first time on it, and I think I performed 15 changes.
Thanks, and keep up the good work. I'll pass you on to any of my friends who are interested in making some things happen, like how to make some of the "Are you SURE?" dialog boxes go away.
I don't think it needs to be separated - what I would appreciate is if your "how-tos" would have a date listed so I can see what I have already read through!!!
Your site is THE most super and well-written site EVER! I have learned everything I know about VISTA from your site. Keep up the excellent work! YOU ARE A GEM!
I have one super Vista-machine running now - thanks to you!
First time I visit your site. Well done, indeed. But I'm sure your proposition would be appreciated.
An easy way to directly get beginners or more advanced users feeds for the same discussion.
In addition, site would be more furnished and attractive.
