Forget Your Small FriendFeed Wishes, We are Having Dream Coming True

Svetlana Gladkova

Right after we were shown the upcoming FriendFeed beta featuring friend lists and some other interesting tweaks of the interface, people started sharing what else could make our experience of FriendFeed closer to perfect in the special room for discussions the team set up for everyone to share their feedback on the redesign. I believe that the team actually hoped to hear feedback only on how the latest version works and what people actually think about this version in the [...]

Feedoor: I’m Going to Wait for Door Number 3

Cyndy Aleo-Carreira

StartUpArabia alerted me to a cool tool called Feedoor, a feed management tool launched last year. Feedoor allows users to edit feeds, filter them, and create new feeds based on mash-ups of multiple feeds and filters.
Feedoor may be the ultimate in vanity tools if they can just get the filtering right. By creating a new feed, you can add any feeds you want and create one huge feed. Want everything under the Denton umbrella? Add Valleywag, Gawker, IO9, and the [...]

Using RSS As a Life Tool

Leslie Poston

If you are anything like me, RSS feeds are a constant part of your daily life. I use them for a variety of things from finding news for work to tracking my own and others' writing online. I even have my daily agenda and television shows in RSS feeds to remind me of various tasks and alert me to new shows. RSS applications have been cropping up everywhere lately as more and more people are using them [...]

Talkr: Podcasting for the Shy

Cyndy Aleo-Carreira

Every so often, friends send me links to Web 2.0 sites. Sometimes it's because they think I'll find them interesting, and sometimes it's because they just can't wait to hear me rant on how useless something is. I'm not sure what the intended reaction was supposed to be for Talkr, but while it's not something I'd use myself, I can see how it could be useful.
Talkr is a service that allows you to podcast your blog… without a microphone. Instead, [...]

Particls - An Addictive Way to Follow the Web

Cyndy Aleo-Carreira

When I was taking Peepel for a drive, CEO Stephen Kelly was kind enough to give me an invite to the private beta of Particls (called Touchstone) at the time, an application that was promising to revolutionize the way you read news feeds. I'll be honest; I was a bit skeptical. I've downloaded and subsequently removed more apps in the past year than my hard drive likes to think about. I've been using Particls now for a little over a [...]

Don’t Wait to Be Bought, Just Try eBay

Cyndy Aleo-Carreira

Apparently, Feedo Style, an app that allows you to include RSS and ATOM feed content on your web site, has decided to take matters into their own hands and sell the product outright using an auction on eBay .
With Feedo Style, you can style your own widget, include virtually any content that has an RSS feed, and if you want to buy the whole company, bidding starts at $5,000.00 USD. According to the auction text, the sale will include the [...]

Do You Know Everything About FeedBurner?

Delta - Tech.co.nr

I had a chance to catch up with FeedBurner employee, Eric Olson. Eric is responsible for cultivating relationships with bloggers, blog networks, podcasters and a wide range of independent and commercial publishers, making him a prime interviewee to look at here at Profy. During our conversation, I found out a little more about the service that so many of us use daily, the reasons behind its success, and the founding principals behind it. To me, the level of customer support, [...]
