Many of my regular readers will be familiar with Toluu because I have linked to it quite a bit, especially in my RSS Reset articles. Toluu is a useful, unique utility that allows you to build a portfolio of RSS feeds that you subscribe to, and then using a ...
Update: Post pulled for inaccuracy. Sorry about that! When it comes to stats I'm still learning. Thanks to Louis for setting me straight. However, FeedCompare is still a useful utility that you should check out.
I was re-reading yesterday’s post about RSS Reset and, since I included the live FeedBurner counters ...
About a week ago, Corvida and I kicked off a plan that is now known as RSS Reset. In my original post, I said I would check back periodically and let you know how I was doing. And here we are! In the first followup post, I listed ...
I already have news about the little RSS reset project that I kicked off earlier today!
Corvida
Corvida has made her move over at ReadWriteWeb. Hopefully we will get some more enterprising souls to give the project a go.
Caleb
Caleb Elston, the creator of Toluu, has been a strong supporter of this move. ...
Tonight, I was chatting with Corvida, and the topic of RSS feed overflow came up. We were both frustrated because there was so much new (potentially great) content being produced every day, that we couldn't keep up! A radical new plan was hatched that we both agreed ...
If you like to catch up on your favorite sites using a feed reader, you are most likely using Google Reader or Bloglines. If you prefer an offline (installable app-based) feed reader, you may be using Newsgator's FeedDemon or some other standalone app. However, in this article I will introduce ...
This isn't going to be just any run-of-the-mill review from me. Why? Because the application I am going to review is different in several substantial ways:
It isn't a piece of software you install on your PC
It isn't a web application like Gmail or YouTube
It really isn't exactly meant to be ...
Do you use FriendFeed, and follow a bunch of people? You might be interested in this little RSSmeme link that, once you put in you FF username, find the links published by your peeps and ranks them by popularity. Grab the RSS feed and voila, you have a ...
I've only been working on this site full-time for a few weeks now. But already, in that time, I've found that my things I consider important have changed, and habits I have had for years have also started to change.
First, I've been using twitter a lot. I really didn't ...
Just a heads-up, I have enabled FeedBurner and all the associated goodies on my site. The plugin should take care of redirecting the current RSS URLs to FeedBurner, so in theory you don't need to do anything further in order to continue getting the quality blog entries you have ...
I am seriously considering switching to using Feedburner for my blog and comment feeds. This will allow people to subscribe via email without and special work on my part, as well as give me statistics and the possibility of feed ads down the road.
What I would REALLY like, is ...
StumbleUpon isn't very much like any social bookmarking site out there. And, in a way, that is good. If you are relatively new to web surfing, or even if you feel like you are going to the same 5 web sites every day, StumbleUpon is the perfect remedy.
Every modern operating system comes with a web browser. On Windows, it is Internet Explorer. On a Mac, it's Safari. Linux usually comes with more than one, but usually has at least Firefox. All of these (arguably) are decent web browsers and do the job ...
It is very likely that you have at least heard of RSS, if from no other place than in my recent review of Google Reader. Well, in this primer we will dig down a bit and learn what RSS is capable of, and how its being used out there ...
Most everyone has heard about Google Reader at this point. But I am sure there are more people out there who don't know an RSS feed from a banner ad, and how Google's product leverages this technology.
First we need to discuss what RSS is. RSS stands for Really Simple ...
