The place João Bordalo calls home: Tag rss

Now using FeedBurner

Due to the lack of good statistics about this blog RSS readers and subscribers, I decided to serve my RSS feeds (?) via FeedBurner. The problem was, how to do it without disturbing my faithful subscribers?

The how-to:

The original link is http://joaobordalo.com/xml/rss20/feed.xml.
I went to FeedBurner and create a new feed pointing to the above URL, which resulted in http://feeds.feedburner.com/JoaoBordalo
Added the following lines to my .htaccess file:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !FeedBurner
RewriteRule ^xml/rss20/feed\.xml$ http://feeds\.feedburner\.com/JoaoBordalo [R,L]

Done. If you have any problems with my 'new' RSS feed, please let me know, by leaving a comment.

Karlus did it again: destakes.com, finding relevant portuguese content, at your service. Brilliant, but were are the rss feeds? Ahh, and with the best how to I ever seen, in one line.

Microsoft SSE

Microsoft announced SSE (Simple Sharing Extensions), which can be seen as a two way item sharing (think bidirectional RSS). The extensions described in the Simple Sharing Extensions enable feed readers and publishers to generate and process incoming item changes in a manner that enables consistency to be achieved. For example, two or more will be able to co-edit a post, which can be a huge revolution in the blogsphere. If you are a technical person, you should take a look at the specification page, after all, Microsoft launched it under a Creative Commons Share Alike license. Are the winds of change blowing from Richmond?
