Incorporating RSS feeds into your website
Apr 5th, 2006 by Karen
At Computers in Libraries someone asked me about scripts that would allow you to incorporate RSS feeds into web pages. I have done this in the past using server-side scripting. However, this isn’t an option for everyone. Many people don’t have the skills to do this. I knew that it was also possible to do this with Javascript and had FURLed some things about this in the past. Here are a few of the sites I found that will help you do this.
- Feed to Javascript - http://jade.mcli.dist.maricopa.edu/feed/
- RSS Digest - http://www.bigbold.com/rssdigest/
- RSS to Javascript - http://rss-to-javascript.com/
These are just a few examples there are others out there as well. The point is that it has become REALLY easy to accomplish this. So try it out on your blog or your library’s website
You can find some more resources for this at:

They should have attended my Post Conference on this exact topic ;-)
