As if the rotating wallpaper slideshow in Windows 7 was not enough to keep us entertained, the newest Windows operating system also allows RSS feeds to change our wallpapers for us. There are a few software programs around that do this, but really a short script will do the same thing without having to download anything extra.  Do not be intimidated by the length of the script; you can always cut and paste!
