Feedo Style RSS Embedding

15 Apr 2006

Feedo Style allows you to add fresh themed content to your website from any RSS, RDF or ATOM feed with a simple copy and paste. In a few minutes you can create stylish tickers and news boxes that update automatically 24 hours a day, 7 days a week! You’ll never have to lift a finger and you’ll be offering your viewers valuable and highly relevant content.

There are pros and cons about this tool. I can imagine a lot of bloggers aren’t in favor of a custom feed scraper tool like this, because it easily allows people to ’steal’ content and republish it on any page on the web, monetizing the labor of others. On the other hand, you can turn it into a nice collector of your own feeds from various social bookmarking sites or maybe even Flickr or YouTube. I haven’t tested it yet to see if it scrapes AND displays images as well or only text. It’s on my ‘to do’ list.
UPDATE: It only displays text links from the YouTube Feed. No thumbnails from the movies. Too bad.
