Video: How to make a Reading List with the OPML Editor
Click on the screenshot to download a 7.3MB .AVI showing how to use the OPML Editor to make an OPML reading list. Sorry about the lack of streaming -- the tool I'm using to make screencasts, SnagIt, only outputs in .AVI, and at the moment I'm all out of conversion tools! Dave put me together with Steven of LibraryStuff who wanted to make a Web 2.0 reading list. Now that request was sent to me on the ninth and it's now, gulp, the 21st. Steven, I'm sorry for not swinging into action sooner! I've been closing on my house and it takes all my attention. I hope this is helpful to the community anyway. Amyloo is doing some thinking about documentation for the 1.0 release of the OPML Editor. I have documentation that I've been writing that includes documentation of all the menu items. I got stuck on the "Programmers' Menu" portion, and I need help with someone more technical than I am with that menu. Then all that's really needed is some screenshots and use-case HOWTOs, which in my view is the easier part of the bargain. Where can I put the text somewhere we can work on it jointly (I've got it as an OPML file)? Wow, an OPML Community Blog! See, ya leave for two weeks, and when you get back, the OPML Community has built a working replica of a steamship. Or something. Cool! Cowhand announces the OPML Agriculture News Directory. Applause! Cristian Vidmar: "I'm seeing more and more bloggers take position against local comments in weblogs. Latest is Matt. Couldn't agree more, I've always been against the idea of local comments, the centralization of information they make, the way they stimulate flamers' frustrations and stalkers' deviations, the background noise they add." LibraryClips: "The other day on my Grazing Lists post I mentioned reading feeds by relevancy." LibraryClips is so good so routinely it's really pretty amazing. Oy! (What would we do without Yiddish? It fills in all the gaping holes in English). Eirepreneur points to a photo of Adam Green demoing FeedGrazr. (Web 2.0 is all about the last vowl droppr.) 0xDECAFBAD: "OpmlServer is an attempt at implementing a standalone OPML Community Server in PHP. The goal is to support all the features expected by the OPML Editor, eventually offering some blogging and community services." Cool. Martin Dittus: "Parsing an OPML Document Recursively With Ruby While Preserving Its Structure." I'm not sure I get it, but hey, my readers are smarter than me, so why worry? ;-> Adam Green: OPML Camp Coming to Boston !!!!!!!!!!! Know what a reading list? Congratulations, you're Web 3.0! The air's a little thin up here... |
