Newsletters by RSS Software Released
April 14th, 2004“ToolButton Inc. today launched NewslettersByRSS.com. The free NewslettersByRSS service allows newsletter publishers to continue to deliver their newsletters by email while trying out the much-hyped delivery medium of RSS. Publishers obtain a special NewslettersByRSS email address which they add to their newsletter distribution list. When the newsletter is emailed to the list in the normal course of publication, it is automatically converted by NewslettersByRSS and immediately available to the subscriber as a RSS feed.”
Interesting concept, one that has been done before (I think - I can’t remember where I saw it). A thought: If your library has an e-mail distribution list, why not offer your users the option to get the content via RSS using this site? It might be a nice method with getting started with RSS. While I haven’t used it before, it looks simple enough.
