Greeting folks,

Just a note to let you know I have started a new company, called Pirate Weather.

It's basically a weather site providing instant weather for over 35,000 location throught the world. We have been adding cool features including some of the latest fads like RSS Feeds, "put a Pirate Weather Report" on your site frature, and local weather podcasts(two more weeks).

I am reaching out to you folks to generate some traffic and hopefully some interest. My business model will be to drive traffic to my site daily and generate revenue thru Google ads and other affiliates.

I would love any feedback, suggestions, and or potential partnerships.

Thank you for your time and have a great long weekend.

I turned moderation off on this list, since off-topic messages haven't
been a problem, and while there are a lot of members, list traffic is
really low. If a spate of off-topic messages follow, I'll have to turn
moderation on again.

In the meantime, here's a post about Audible's RSS support, which is
both impressive and issue-raising.

I believe that's how most aggregators work.  I have many feeds in
FeedDemon that end in a slash, and all feedburner feed URLS are in
that format (like http://feeds.feedburner.com/BurnThisRSS2/ ), and
every aggregator I've tried (and I tried a lot a few months ago when I
was looking for a new one) handled it fine.

Radio UserLand (http://radio.userland.com/) doesn't have an issue with
the extension.  It downloads the file and looks for the XML
declaration and RSS type at the top of the file.

It looks like RSS Feeds from the National Weather Service are
available--just and your NWS station to the end of the URL.  Here's
the one for Springfield, MO where I live and it returns the current
observations from the airport.

http://weather.gov/data/current_obs/KSGF.rss

or San Franciso, CA:

http://weather.gov/data/current_obs/KSFO.rss

Can't find any documentation, though.  Dave, it looks like they need

It isn't clear to me either. I thought it was worthy of a post to
this list because my hope is that the users will settle these issues
at some point, maybe now the time is right. Developers debating
doesn't get us anywhere. The benefits of breakage have to make sense
to users, imho.

Dear Dave,

It seems to me that by attempting to drum up support against RSS 1.1 you are, in
fact, helping to promote it. If you had just ignored it it may have simply gone
away.

Right now it is becoming a platform for anyone with an axe to grind.

A couple of quotes:
 
These guys are buying into RSS big-time. Like anyone who delivers information, they deliver a lot of it using Web technology, and a lot of their information is dynamic, and professional effectiveness for many people depends on soaking up a lot of it quickly without investing too much time.
 
...
 
They’ve also done something way cool with their Google appliance; one of the bright geeks there has set up a thing where you can subscribe to a search and get an RSS feed. Well, duh. Anyone could fix up one of those using the Google API, I wonder why Google isn’t supporting this already?

I had a feeling this wasn't a completely new idea.

It's unclear to me if Feedster allows a user to subscribe to a search as an RSS feed, which is then polled like any other RSS source.

If so,  I can see that this would be as useful as the provision of RSS search results at the site level. Maybe it's actually better to handle this in a centralised way, as Feedster does, though I think there may still be value in having the ability to provide this on a site by site basis.

If the priority is aggregation, a centralised approach absolutely makes sense. If the intention is to provide "custom" RSS feeds which can be subscribed to directly, the local provision of the service looks useful too.

I do think that some kind of search syntax standardisation would be useful. If the major blogging tools agreed on some parameter names and implemented RSS search results, it could have some interesting possibilities. One advantage would be that it would be possible to filter on parameters which are unsupported by any particular flavour of syndication format - i.e. the searched for data doesn't need to be in the RSS output content at all, it just needs to be searchable on the site source database.

Another  benefit could be the resolution of the issues relating to RSS discovery, with a single standard URL plus parameters being sufficient to provide all requested formats/versions on demand.

You are right.  The feed doesn't validate:

Fservices%2Frss.aspx%3Fchartname%3Dtopsongs

Looking at these feeds, I see:

<item>
<title>Greatest Hits:  Night Ranger</title>
<link>http://beta.music.msn.com/album/?album=10016566</link>
<description>Greatest Hits:  Night Ranger by Night Ranger</description>
<pubDate>6/12/1989 12:00:00 AM</pubDate> <category>Rock</category>
</item>

I thought pubDate was suppose to be an RFC 822 date?

Hm...

Clearly I'm biased here since Feedster has been providing search results via RSS
for > 1 year but this is interesting.  Are you suggesting that other systems
standardize on the same search syntax:

>>http://www.zopezen.org/search?portal_type%3Alist=Source%20Code&sort_on=created\
&sort_order=reverse

I can agree that there's utility on the search params being the same.  Although
I
think that Zope should have modeled more after Google (heck even we did).

iTunes Music Store also supports RSS feeds, including a custom feed
generator:

I'm currently looking at Plone/Zope as a possible content management
system for a project. I came across this interesting post on ZopeZen:

http://www.zopezen.org/Members/andy/news_item.2004-08-06.1348974096

Apparently Plone 2 exposes all search results as RSS.

This means that I can subscribe to an RSS feed which is tailored to my
wishes. I could, for example set up an RSS subscription which only
changes when posts containing a specific word or phase is added to the
site. A suitably set up Plone site would also allow me to specify
other metadata, such as content type (image, audio file etc.).

Using the (very long!) example search feed URL on the page referred to
above, I have subscribed to a feed from the ZopeZen site showing only
items which contain the word London, simply by adding this to the
SearchableText parameter in the URL.

Another benefit is that it would provide a standard format for search
results, making search aggregators easier to produce, and also make it
easy to add search functions to existing RSS aggregators.

This may well be more widespread than I'm aware of, but it looks like
a really fruitful approach.
