Mix & Mash: 21 RSS Mashup Tools For Your Website
By CleverSage | January 30, 2008
There have been many times where I have had the need to combine multiple RSS feeds to display on a website or blog. Combining and displaying feeds is useful for many, many different reasons: news, articles, comments and a plethora of other applications. Up until recently however, it has been difficult to take several different feeds combine them into one, and display them. Over the past year or two though, several different sites and services have sprung up to do these mashups for you and take the work out of programming or coding this yourself.
The best of the best RSS mashup & mixer tools:
FeedBlendr
FeedBlendr will grab all the feeds you enter and blend them up into a nice, thick, ‘river of news’ smoothie. You’ll get a URL where you can subscribe to everything all at once.
Yahoo Pipes
Pipes is a powerful composition tool to aggregate, manipulate, and mashup content from around the web.
RSS Mixer
