Pull Content From Many Feeds?

7 replies
I have about forty RSS-feeds that I'm subscribed to, and I wanted to be able to pull them into a single document. That way, instead of going to each feed page, I can just look at a single one and see all of the updated content.

Would it be easy to code my own platform for doing this? I've heard that it is possible by using PHP, but I'm very unsure.

Any help is appreciated!

    If it's just for you reading then I'm pretty sure Google Reader allows you to subscribe to multiple RSS feeds, and if they're in a folder then viewing that folder will show all the aggregated content together in one stream.

      I didn't even think about that. For some reason, I was going to make an actual program-_- Thanks!

    I 3rd the use of Yahoo Pipes. It takes some time to get used to how it works, but once you figure it out it's great! I once used Pipes to create an RSS feed which was used by WPRobot to post my content.

    All you need is a feed reader, I use the Google Reader. If you already have Gmail (Google account) then all you need to do is open Google Reader & add the feeds, done.

    I just have the right tool for this, I have been working on a product that pulls down the headlines from multiple RSS feeds and twitter accounts and presents them into a nice magazine like UI, I will offer it as a WSO when it is done.

    I probably need some people to test and review it for me so I could use it as testimonial.

    PM me if you are interested in testing the software first hand, it will take me a while to finish it so be patient but in the mean time you can check a web-site that I built using this software... remember it's just a demo : GEEK Journal
