This is an add-on for Splunk 4.1 and above. You must first download the RSS Scripted Input add-on from splunkbase.com to index RSS feeds. After indexing RSS feeds, follow the instructions in the README.txt for rss_reader to turn Splunk Web into a RSS reader. One of the fields being indexed by the RSS Scripted Input add on is called 'link'. A set of workflow actions have been defined to get to the article's link and have the content of the link show in a new window.
