The Ins and Outs of RSS - An Education Institute audio conference
January 10, 2006
I started my morning off today by leading an audio session for the Education Institute on “The Ins and Outs of RSS.” I’ve posted the six slides-per-page PDF version of the slides (6.6 mb) to my blog (sorry about the size, folks!) — and for those that weren’t able to attend, there’s some talk of […]
NetNewsWire to Del.icio.us scripts
October 28, 2005
I’m a recent convert from Bloglines to NetNewsWire. Nothing against Bloglines, but iIjust find NetNewsWire to be much more feature-rich and I can plow through way more information in half the time (the smart list folders are great). Add in the ability to blog and run a few scripts such as the ones below, and […]

Subscribing to an email list (listserv) using Bloglines

I feel like I just invented water, but a number of people I know as well as myself could not for the life of us figure out how to subscribe to a listserv that required any kind of email to be sent using Bloglines. It was easy enough to understand how Bloglines could generate an […]
Yahoo adds RSS/My Yahoo integration into search results
October 28, 2004
Yahoo’s integrated the option to add available RSS feeds to your aggregator or MyYahoo account (see this example using my name), directly from the search results hit list. I agree with Kenton that to add the feed to one’s “My Library” account has to be right around the corner for some of us.
