Title: Good RSS source
Post by: Jereboam on October 22, 2003, 11:11:52 PM
Whilst browsing I found this which seems to be a good source of RSS feeds for TodayPlus.

You can also create an RSS feed from the url of a webpage...nice.

But as they say - please check that the site you are trying to RSS-ise doesn't already provide a feed...that would be pointless!!

Let me know if you find any good ones.

I have tried this and when you click on the magnifying glass to see the page, all you get is a myRSS redirect page which doesnt work because I am not connected. I get no news except the title of the article.

yes, because the rss that myrss.com generates link back to their site first, and when downloading the pages TodayPlus doesnt follow redirects.

Bummer, sorry I should have tried setting up a feed first...I thought this would be a cool source. Well, it is, but not for TodayPlus it would seem...

Sorry for the non-domesticated goose chase.

Its a fine source, and headlines and descriptions will display fine, just not the cached pages...
Title: TV listings via RSS?
Post by: arbitrajeu on October 27, 2003, 03:16:23 PM
One thing I've not been able to find yet, but would be interested in experimenting with, is a source of TV listings information, delivered in RSS format.  I'm thinking something that would synch periodically and give me the next 9 programmes on a particular channel - would need an RSS source for each channel, I guess.

This is probably only practicable in places like the UK where we have a paltry number of channels.

Anyone seen anything like it?
