Amy Gahran: Using OPML for Thinking, Writing, Publishing --" My dear friend and fellow blogger Koan Bremner has taught me yet another cool trick: If you want to publish a complex, evolving, multi-leveled document online, OPML is a good way to go." Amy is, as they say here in Massachusetts, "wicked smaht." A good post that gets at a lot of the "why" of OPML. Cristian Vidmar on OPML inclusions. Alex Barnett has an OPML 101 screencast! Yesss! It's the OPML Validator. Monitor This creates an OPML file that includes a list of up to 14 RSS feeds from RSS-enabled search services. Why is that cool? Well, I keep track of news for Watertown on the web by going to Technorati, Feedster, et. al, plugging in "watertown," and subscribing to the resulting feed. Monitor This lets me create "watertown" feeds for 14 services with one click. Gada.be also does this. Fran is putting together an OPML outline of mental health resources. Extra cool? The outline uses the DSM-IV as the taxonomy. David Wilkinson: OPML is for Storing and Sharing Structured Data Yes! The way I think of it, the web is very "flat," and the hierarchy of information is determined by people other than the user. OPML lets you take stuff that's out there, remix it with your stuff, and lets you decide what's the most important, and what's related to what, and what order a newbie should proceed in to get the maximum intellectual Kapow! EirePreneur: "To mashup Hannibal Smith's great catchphrase - I just love it when a standard comes together. In the same way that we've seen an enormous ecosystem coagulate around the RSS standard we are now seeing the same thing happening with OPML." Oh. Wow. OPMLManager. |
