Rendering a feed into HTML with GrazrWhile researching this development of my personal feed, I looked for a generic client side javascript to consume and display feeds, a bit like the twitter and delicious widgets in the sidebar, although these gadgets are tightly tied to their authors own feeds. I found GRAZR, which has offers an aggregation service for its members and a widget against any feed for casual visitors. It has a bunch of themes, and I have illustrated one here.... I was looking to embed some of both my published feeds and those I wish to syndicate, having read, onto my HTML sites. This looks like it might do. The example above is my bookmarks feed from delicious and so doesn't have different icons nor different italicised feed names; it is only one feed. I expect one has to use their aggregator to get different icons. tags: technology syndication rss "news feed" "personal feed" aggregator grazr html widget (2008-08-07 08:43:22.0) Permalink Whats wrong with secondbrain Prior to finding FriendFeed, Richard Morgan pointed me at
secondbrain.net. This
is both a personal feed aggregator with a social networking dimension. It has a
limited number of services, which given I blog on roller and snipsnap, causes
me an issue in that I can't incorporate my blogs into a second brain feed; they
don't have services for these blogs. See Jonathan's comments, it seems it does have a twitter service; I didn't look hard enough tags: technology syndication rss "news feed" "personal feed" aggregator secondbrain (2008-08-07 04:50:59.0) Permalink Comments [2] Aurevoir SlynkrWhile researching an article on personal feed aggregators, I came to the conclusion that I will stop posting to slynkr; the service was built as a prototype/demonstrator, and has become too unreliable, its hardly ever available. I will continue to experiment with it as it remains a useful opensource project that can act as a community focus, having advantages that bulletin boards lack. I liked its tagging feature, although the retrieval interface for tags was not as good as it might have been. I may run one up on davelevy.info. Things I think interesting and want to share, I'll pump out via my google share, articles I want to tag, I'll use del.icio.us. tags: technology syndication rss "news feed" "personal feed" aggregator (2008-08-07 03:22:41.0) Permalink |
