I logged into Feedly for the first time in 10 years. Depressing how many of the blogs I was subscribed to are now dead.
On the other hand very impressed with Feedly because old articles are still accessible!
@davetron5000 Hev Dave, I just read your email and was quite saddened but understand. I recommended your book to a co-worker just this AM!
Curious if you'd recommend any other frameworks other than the one you are building yourself.
Thank you for the incredible work on the book. It made me a much better programmer. ❤️

@provuejim Thank you Jim!
For the “topic” thing what I mean is some service that will let you enter a topic and will then create a custom RSS feed for you (by finding / aggregating / filtering other feeds it knows about related to that topic based on importance / popularity etc..).
Looks like Feedly has a pro feature called “AI Feed” that can do something like this. Might give that a try.
Types of things I'm thinking about:
- how to get email newsletters into an RSS feed
- how to filter / transform an RSS feed's content through rules or some AI system (is there a “yahoo pipes for RSS feeds”?)
- how to subscribe to “topics" (e.g. “Ruby”) without having to know the best feeds to subscribe to
- how to keep from becoming overwhelmed with content
I'm going to try using an RSS reader for the first time in years (since Google Reader was killed!).
Any tips / suggestions on using RSS these days?
