Scobleizer: My OPML file uploaded

  • Randy Charles Morin · 4 years ago
    Scoble, because it's zipped, I can't really link to it using most OPML tools. FYI.

    thanks robert, can i suggest an unzipped version (only 160k)?

    Why is it so difficult to unzip it and tell your feed reader where the file is ? Or is it because other Web 2.0 services (AJAX Based) have spoiled you ?

    My guess is because this isn't really Scoble's bandwidth he's having to do it this way and keep the leeches away from sourcing it directly. Another downside (or upside, depending on your perspective) to third party hosting.

    Jay - I think they mean for online tools not for their own personal use. See the side bar (right side) on scripting.com for one example of this

    What, most OPML tools can't handle unzipping after downloading? Isn't that what compression is all about? Lame!

    It's evident looking at the OPML list that attention and interest ranking would be useful.

    Jay - opml are 'live' bits. Making the opml readable allows it to be pointed to - so as the opml changes, the app on the other side sees the updated version. My point is that opmls should have urls - this makes them v.useful.

    I just uploaded an OPML file that you all can use. See the post that follows this one.

    About 25% of feeds in your OPML file have a last post saying that feed has moved to new URL. Another 10% point to non-existant URLS. I think you need to continue to work on cleaning your Feeds.

    I'm getting more used to OPML now, but is it possible to tag the rss entries, e.g. Linux, .NET, Computing, Personal blogs etc. Alternatively have an opml file for each category.
