OPML reading lists in FeedMagick2

October 17, 2007 – 3:22 am

For anyone who’s interested: I’ve been hacking a little bit on FeedMagick2 again, with the latest addition being an OPML reading list feed blender. What’s an OPML reading list? Basically, it’s the same as as OPML export of a feed reader’s subscription list – only rather than doing a one-time import into [...]

XoxoOutliner and further outline addressing adventures

November 15, 2006 – 3:07 am

Revised the addressing code a bit, adding a few new kinds of addresses and getting ready to support sub-outline updates. That is, fetch a sub-branch of an outline and then later post a change to that sub-branch using the same address. Needs more thought – ie. what happens if things move between fetch [...]

Reading Lists, OPML, XOXO, Semantic Web, and Tools

February 13, 2006 – 12:09 pm

It’s also the first time I’ve heard Danny Ayers’ voice, so that was pretty cool after having been a textual blog acquaintance for a few years now. As for the rest of [...]

Don’t Pee in the Potato Chips

January 28, 2006 – 2:02 am

So, I’ve expressed some renewed interest in tinkering around with the code behind the OPML Editor and NewsRiver. Well, it needs to be said that there are some strings attached to playing in this field: That is, these are Dave Winer’s potato chips I’m enjoying. And, well, when you’re taking chips from [...]

Ancient code drifting down the newsRiver

January 28, 2006 – 1:08 am

So, while working through some writing blockages last weekend, I started doing some hacking on Dave Winer’s newsRiver running on the OPML Editor platform. (Oh, and it is a platform, maybe more so than even emacs—don’t let the moniker ‘editor’ fool you.) Here’s the thing: It was a lot of addictive fun, and it [...]

Use del.icio.us to build & share Reading Lists?

January 19, 2006 – 3:08 pm

As far as I know, the most popular link managment tool is del.icio.us, a tool I love for its power and simplicity. del.icio.us allow you to export all your links in RSS which is cool. So, I wrote a quick and dirty PHP script that converts this RSS export to an OPML list (see at [...]

Subscriptions are attention, but what about blogrolls?

November 27, 2005 – 4:29 pm

But today, for my rss feeds importing and exporting needs, OPML far outshines xoxo.Yes, there are 6 XOXO outlines on my front page. There are six lists. But I don’t have an easy way to import one of those XOXO outlines in my FeedDemon application in order to receive the latest blog items from those [...]
