Take 2… Put Your Hands Up and…
Nov 212009

Been at this for an hour or so.

Trying to set up an RSS feed which is a compilation of a bunch of feeds/tweets that I follow. Started using YahooPipes for this service. There’s great flexibility, and it does almost everything I want it to, except that I’m having no luck in merging the feeds together (eg the feeds are still grouped separately, whereas I’d like them to be merged by date/time they were published). The ‘Sort’ utility seems pretty useless, but I still have some tinkering to do.

The RSS feeds I’m merging are related to the GayIn… sites that I maintain (GayinLimerick.com, GayinGalway.com, GayCork.com), as well as The Advocate and the ACLU for LGBT news updates. I’m also throwing in some television and entertainment feeds (TVguide.com, Entertainment Weekly’s Michael Ausiello, and the UK’s X-Factor).

    Aha! Dear me,

    You’re probably being fussy. Going forward, it shouldn’t matter too much so long as the tweets/updates come in merged into one feed, and you don’t have to scroll through older posts.

    Must test that tomorrow.

    Eh…goodnight…self.
