In Need of Beta Clickers

Um, Chris, if you have PHP on your server, and your info is stored in database format (this is the assumption), why would you need to “install software” on your server? Just write some simple PHP code to do it. Hell, if you'd like, I'll write it for ya.

for usability:
a) preface each part with the issue number or something so I can tell where the issue begins/ends (if I'm more than a day behind, it would get weird)
b) make sure to use categories…same ones as in the actual newsletter (Gnomeclicks, Gnomedownloads, etc) so I can tell what each one is from my newsreader
c) not really necessary, but putting the author in as you do for the Daily (usually in the square brackets) would be a nice touch

Isn't there an existing rss feed already for Windows Daily? What's wrong with that one?

I don't know chris, RSS is cool and all, but i still am not falling in love with it.

i use voidstar and the drawback that i noticed is that the first link in the description is put as the link element not the web page's url. Using NewsDesk to view my xml and I found this setback. Other than that its good. Hey, its free too! =)

Heheh netpanday, do it the dirty way, like what I did… In Blogger, before the items are entered, BlogItemBody or something, put an invisible a href. That almost always get ya the link element to point to the article. Hoowah!

that invisible a href worked. woot! woot! thank you nizam. you sir are awesome and so does chris' blog. uh-oh, im getting hyper i think its the caffeine kicking in.

Yes, it is I, VoidStar. Bow down before my null pointer!
Seriously, I would like nothing better than to be able to retire rssify.php because alll the major platforms produced RSS natively. It's a horrible hack and I hate it!
While you're messing with this, check out http://www.voidstar.com/gnews2rss.php And yes, I'd really like to retire that one as well, because Google had started to produce News Search results in RSS format. Here's hoping.

So if you use either, please email Blogger, Google and anybody else who will listen (Livejournal) demanding native RSS from your favourite blogging tool and news sites.

*prostrates*
Julian, I was just starting to use your rssifier just a couple of hours ago and now you're retiring it? But native RSS feeds from Blogger is a great idea. Now all we need is some semi-famous-celebrity-type person to take the petition to the company bigwigs at Blogger/Google. [Google does own Blogger, right?]

Blogger produces RSS natively, but you have to pay up to get it added as a 'service'.

the rss feed looks great to me. as for you blogger people, find some one that will host a MT page for you. I host a bunch og blogs on my site, all have rss.

I had a read up on Blogger, and yes, they in fact support RSS feeds on their Blogger Pro accounts. Hmmm… No way I'm gonna have Blogger Pro just to have an RSS feed. Maybe it's time to migrate to MovableType.
