Are Your Reading…?

March 14th, 2006

John Tropea has been an OPML freak for a long time. I’ve been an avid fan for a while now and felt the need to show him more link love this evening. If you are at all interested in OPML and other work centered around RSS technology, Library Clips is a must read. Before you stop by his site, subscribe to his feed. Don’t pass go. Don’t collect $200 dollars. Subscribe now.

Done? OK.

Check out this amazing post from today:

OPML for OPAC - “I can see some catalogues having an RSS feed for each subject term…whenever there is a new book in the library and it’s assigned that subject term you can be notified. So why not take a bunch of feeds of subjects you like and add these feeds as items in an OPML outline, you have now created a Reading List…people can browse it in an OPML Browser/Reader or subscribe to the OPML URL in their RSS Reader. Whenever you add more subject feeds to the list it will be reflected in whoever subscribes to your OPML URL…add that to your sidebar and browse it Read/Write, social, re-mix, mashup…the web is becoming interconnected.”

See? I told you.
