akdrv Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 RSS is an acronym for Really Simple Syndication. It's a quick and easy way to create and use "syndicated content" such as news headlines and announcements. Some websites (like this one) use RSS to deliver articles and article previews to readers who are simply too busy to visit the site and dig up the content they are interested in. Other sites use RSS to alert customers of new products or upcoming events. RSS feeds can be used in an RSS reader or included in some new aggregator services, such as My Yahoo or Google Desktop. Here is a list of Coin People RSS feeds: Coins In The News http://www.coinpeople.com/rss.php?forum=29 Main Coin Forum http://www.coinpeople.com/rss.php?forum=4 World Coin Forum http://www.coinpeople.com/rss.php?forum=5 Ancient Coin Forum http://www.coinpeople.com/rss.php?forum=245 Banknote Forum http://www.coinpeople.com/rss.php?forum=6 British Coin Forums http://www.coinpeople.com/rss.php?forum=9 Canadian Coin Forums http://www.coinpeople.com/rss.php?forum=10 Russian Coin Forums http://www.coinpeople.com/rss.php?forum=11 Finnish Coin Forums http://www.coinpeople.com/rss.php?forum=12 US Coppers Forum http://www.coinpeople.com/rss.php?forum=13 Exonumia Forums http://www.coinpeople.com/rss.php?forum=14 Error and Variety Coin Forums http://www.coinpeople.com/rss.php?forum=15 Numismatic Online Writers (NOW) Forum http://www.coinpeople.com/rss.php?forum=220 Popular Coin Idol Competition http://www.coinpeople.com/rss.php?forum=221 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Stujoe Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 Cool. I may be able to use a few of those in various places to maybe drive some traffic here. BTW: There is a tool to allow you to show rss feeds on a website http://jade.mcli.dist.maricopa.edu/feed/index.php?s=build It comes in a hosted and non-hosted flavor. I have not tested it with these feeds yet but I have used it in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Stujoe Posted February 28, 2006 Report Share Posted February 28, 2006 Looks like it works with the CP feeds... http://www.stujoe.com/1.htm Obviously that is quick and dirty and can be formatted into an existing webpage to actually use it.

Very cool. It converts RSS to include on your website as JavaScript. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
