It’s RSS Awareness Day

May 1, 2008 in Blog by Carsten Pötter | Comments

RSS Awareness Day May 1st is not just a bank holiday celebrating workers’ rights. Some people thought it was a good idea to raise awareness of RSS as well. So today is also RSS Awareness Day. I don’t claim it is as important as fighting for workers’ rights. But what did I do without RSS? How could I manage my online life without it?

So just for fun I created a pipe on Yahoo! Pipes. I just spliced some feeds together to create a single feed for all my published items. It includes:

  • blog feed
  • comment feed
  • shared items from FeedDemon
  • my bookmarks on Ma.gnolia
  • my tweets on Twitter

And just to get a pretty URL I burned a feed at FeedBurner. Very simple, nothing special at all. If you feel really adventurous you can subscribe to it but I don’t promise to keep it alive.

Happy RSS Awareness Day!

  • Wasn't aware of this RSS awareness day, is it really truth or just something originated by you? ;)
