If you’re into blogging, you’ve probably that many sites have links to RSS files. Anyhow, RSS is a format that easily allows sites to be syndicated (that is, their content is excerpted onto your site). As they’re XML, the RSS file alone doesn't do you much good, but Nancies.com lists several RSS tools that you can use to syndicate other people's RSS files. Among them:
- If you're a do-it-yourself type, there are several Perl, Python PHP, and Java RSS-gathering scripts available.
- Or, if you have the ability to run scripts on your web server via cgi-bin, RSS Monkey looks quite promising.
- There's also a JavaScript-based RSS viewer available.
And, I see that Skipping Dot Net offers many links on RSS tools as well. Now, I just have to find some tools for dealing with RDF files ;).
