Still, 90 feeds is really more than I can realistically keep up with. The question of which feeds to unsubscribe from plagues me. How long does one subscribe to a feed before deciding it's not worthwhile? http://tc.eserver.org/32381.html http://tc.eserver.org/32381.html Some general notes on RDF, its history and prospects, and a Grand Challenge to the RDF community. http://tc.eserver.org/31575.html http://tc.eserver.org/31575.html Joe Gregorio's latest Restful Web column implements the Atom Publishing Protocol as a Python web service using WSGI. http://tc.eserver.org/29587.html http://tc.eserver.org/29587.html Simply put RSS is an XML application for simple web feed syndication and content subscriptions. Let's say you have content on your site that you want to feed, or make available for other sites. This is known as web syndication. Most commonly this takes the form of sharing news headlines, product releases, or some similar timely content. RSS provides a standardized method for web sites to use when creating these feeds. http://tc.eserver.org/29548.html http://tc.eserver.org/29548.html RSS, also known as rich site summary or real simply syndication, arrived on the scene a number of years ago, but was only recently embraced by webmasters as a means to effectively syndicate content. RSS Feeds provide webmasters and content providers an avenue to provide concise summaries to prospective readers. Thousands of commercial web sites and blogs now publish content summaries in an RSS feed. Each item in the feed typically contains a headline; article summary and link back to the online article. http://tc.eserver.org/28822.html http://tc.eserver.org/28822.html Feedity is an RSS generator for web pages without a web syndication format. The goal of Feedity is to dynamically create RSS web feeds from such webpages. Feedity will take virtually any web page, and convert it into a fully formed RSS web feed. The RSS feed is updated in near-real time. http://tc.eserver.org/27868.html http://tc.eserver.org/27868.html How can you create an RSS for a specific HTML page, especially if the page-create software or web host doesn't provide an automated method. This article discusses how to use a screen scraper to quickly and easily create a RSS feed for any HTML page. http://tc.eserver.org/21643.html http://tc.eserver.org/21643.html In this chapter we examine the RSS 0.91, 0.92, and 2.0 specifications in detail. We also show how to create your own feeds and use those created by others. http://tc.eserver.org/21089.html http://tc.eserver.org/21089.html A directory of more than 100 online resources about RSS (Really Simple Syndication). http://tc.eserver.org/21043.html http://tc.eserver.org/21043.html I’ve now seen firsthand that RSS feedreaders, or news aggregators, truly can provide the ability to literally scan hundreds of site updates and headlines in a matter of seconds, letting me know when those sites have updated posts or news. Depending on the software used, the user can be notified by a bubble popping up, a sound, or the headlines appearing in a list with a right click mouseover on the aggregator’s system tray icon, for example. http://tc.eserver.org/20735.html http://tc.eserver.org/20735.html RSS (Rich Site Summary or Really Simple Syndication) is an XML format designed for sharing headlines and other Web content. Print and Web publishers such as BBC, CNET, CNN, Disney, Forbes, Motley Fool, Wired, Red Herring, Salon, Slashdot, and ZDNet use it to distribute stock tickers, sport scores, weather reports, news headlines and other information.
