“groovy mother...”

A bug introduced by Google is causing my feed to break their RSS reader. I’ve reported it, so hopefully it will be remedied quickly.

I CAN HAS GROVYMUTHER?

Here are the pipes I’ve created so far. Wish Flickr used the same ID for photos in regular streams as well as in pools, but I’m happy with a slight decrease in duplicity.

Wicked cool RSS/Atom masher-upper from Yahoo. Nice GUI and mapping model, which means making a Boing Boing feed without Xeni Jardin can essentially be a drag’n’drop operation.

The new Google Reader UI is a vast improvement over their initial release. Still not something I’d use, but definitely recommendable to feed-reading newbies.

Google Calendar has an Atompub-based API.

Ning are sharing out all the user-generated data as Atom feeds, and will soon be supporting Atom Publishing to modify data. Hooray for non-roach-motels.

Cool stuff (in a gloriously uncool way). A servlet to handle remote Lucene queries which is based on Atom-Pub, XOXO and OpenSearch. Hooray for well-defined standards which will speed up coding.

RSS feedreader plugin for Eclipse. Piping FogBugz’s RSS feeds into this will make it easy to keep track of my bugs in the IDE.

Oh, fucking hell. Dave Winer’s started another dick-swinging war about RSS, this time claiming that a group he started no longer exists, which came as something of a surprise to the nine members.

Finally had a chance to play with FeedLounge. It’s a very nice interface, that’s for sure — I’d recommend this over Bloglines to new RSS users. I’m probably going to stick with self-hosted Gregarius for now, though, since it’s free and free.

Really awesome looking self-hosted feed reader. I’ve been using Feed on Feeds for the last month or so, but this looks light-years ahead of it.

Google’s long-rumoured RSS-reader launched. Tagging, keyboard navigation, and server-based? If they can up the responsiveness of the server, Bloglines may well be fucked.
