  •  RSS Tool Vendors
    Blog about RSS aggregators, feed generators and manipulators (mixers, filtering services, converters), OPML and about blog search engines. Home of the RSS Tool Vendor News browser.

  •  Google AJAX Search—Experimental Blog
    I set up this TypePad blog in September 2006 to experiment with the then hardly announced Google AJAX Search API. Read how I conquered implementing this advanced technology on a TypePad blog, using Advanced Templates.

  •  CleverClogs
    This is my main outlet where I post stuff about projects that I'm involved in. I'm mostly interested in desktop alert systems, in RSS manipulation techniques and in advanced blog search techniques. Some projects get so elaborate that I devote a separate blog to them.

Feet Burning Headlines

Isn't this cool? The feature is called Headline Animator and it's a service offered by FeedBurner. The blog titles inside the gif are updated when I update my blog. I love this. You can create a gif like this from any RSS feed. You do not need to own the site.

Check it out at the FeedBurner website.

Enhancing Blogging Tools - Preview

This is a request for input for my next post.

If you maintain a weblog using some kind of mainstream blogging tool and you think ActiveWords could be helpful to automate parts of the publishing or editing process, please write to me with details regarding
- which blogging tool you are using (e.g. Blogger, Radio Userland, TypePad, MovableType, BlogWare, Das Blog etc.)
- a link to your website
- other information you think could be useful (trial download pages, usergroups etc)
- exactly what process you'd like to see automated or what's aggravating you

I can't do this alone. I know TypePad pretty well now, so it won't take long before the TypePad wordbase shows up on the Downloads page. The other blogging tools though are pretty new to me. Still I think at least a bunch of the 2,000,000+ bloggers out there would benefit from ActiveWords, so that's why I think it's worth the effort to create wordbases for them.

Other relevant topic requests are welcome too of course.

Thanks!
