A Feed Is Born

A list of RSS tools

by Juned on April 6th, 2008

Rachel Goldstein at All Design Web Blog wrote a very helpful post, Turn HTML Web Sites into RSS Feeds - 20 Tools & Converters for HTML to RSS Conversions. The posts lists down several services that can create an RSS feed for any website.

But why is it a good read?

Because, Goldstein not only provides a list but also a description and concise assessment of each tool. Here is a list of RSS Tools in the list:

The RSS Wizard
Dapper
Feed43
Feedity
FeedXS
Feedmarklet
Feed Fire
Feed Yes
Page to RSS
Ponyfish
RSSxl - Convert an HTML Web Page to RSS
The Super Simple RSS Generator
MySyndicaat
PC Accessories Free HTML to RSS Tool
Feed Writer
Free RSS Feed Writer by LinkAssure
RSS Builder
Runstream
RSSPect
Feed For All

This really is a very helpful post. A highly recommend thing to read.

Of interest to me is the inclusion of Feedity and Feed For All. A Feed Is Born featured Feedity last year in this post. And it is good to see it up and running about. I would still recommend it. As Goldstein mentioned Feed For All is the only tool that is not free and I got curious why it was added to the list. Could it be because of this?

Existing feeds can be enhanced to contain advanced feed properties, and give them a more professional look. [Source]
