Josh Daghlian: "Don't tell anyone I'm posting here too, they'll have requests." Oops! Oh, I do have a request -- push the "Build RSS" button, eh? DLTQ has an iPod-ready Screencast called Focus on the User. Hey, Dave, this is something nice for your new iPod! OMG! It worked! It worked, I got it to work! Like most people I am a fan of things that Just Work, but secretly I am perhaps an even bigger fan of things that are Utterly Cool but Don't Quite Work Until I Tweak A Few Things Resulting In My Feeling like a Total Genius. In this case, I'm talking about posting to my Wordpress blog directly from the OPML Editor. Dave has written a plugin for the OPML editor which talks directly to Wordpress. Bill Rice tried it and it worked, and he also pointed me to Cori Schlegel's customized xml.rpc file for Wordpress. Also invaluable was the screenshot on Cori's blog, which helped me to figure out how precisely to fill out the fields to let the OPML editor figure out where and how to talk to my Wordpress blog. I had been using the OPML editor to talk to my Wordpress blog before, using Mike Houser's OPML to Wordpress script. Mike's script allowed me to have one-click republishing of my OPMLFan posts onto my personal weblog. What Dave's plugin does is to allow me to write posts that don't go onto OPMLFan but only onto my Wordpress blog. Ah, just thrilling! Hooray! Thank you Dave, Bill, Cori (And Matt Mullenweg, too, come to think of it). Dave Wilkinson is thinking about setting up another instance of the OPML Community Server. This screencast -- which I think is by Raymond Kristianssen -- shows the WOW OPML browser, OPMLManager.com, and the OPML Editor working together. J Wynia: "What I wanted was a way to see a “good” post from each feed to get a quick feel for it...You can see a sample of the output, which shows you the sampler for the Web 2.0 Workgroup’s OPML." OUseful found a way to generate an OPML file of useful feeds related to a college course. |
