RSS Frenzy

Years ago, when I was still in high school, I used to have a bookmarks folder called "daily". I used to open all the bookmarks in there (Userfriendly, /., a few forums, etc.) with opera's "open all" feature, getting my daily dose of news and humour. In my first year at university, I began to value my sleep more and usually had no time for this in the morning (I'd rather sleep some more).

A while back I dug up my daily folder, added some new stuff to it and removed the junk and started using it again. Also, around the same time, I decided that the hype around RSS was sorta over, so it would be safe to use it. I wanted an RSS reader inside my browser, since I have enough programs already. I am now using the Sage extension for Firefox, which works good enough. Still a few missing features, but I'll add them sometime. ;-)

Having a lot of RSS feeds in my reader also meant that most pages from my daily folder were deprecated: They offer RSS reads. So the only thing that remains are a few forums, Userfriendly (since a graphical comic is hard to put into RSS) and de wereld van Pro Deo. That last one is an aggregator for the blogs of Pro Deo members. It works by gathering RSS feeds of all blogs and putting them on one central page. The only thing it's missing, is aggregating all these blogs in a new RSS feed. So, Theo, if you're reading.... ;-)
