ThumbnailHmm”¦The Case of the Missing RSS Feed. My RSS feed reader is primed up and ready to go but there’s no feed button on the site.  Just when I thought that this lovely website was going to solve my information lust.

Well, we will try to solve the problem of the missing RSS link but like all good case histories here’s a brief sketch about the guy who’s missing – RSS or Rich Site Summary (also commonly called Really Simple Syndication).

RSS is quite simply a document which sums up an updated web page in a standardized format and delivers it to those who want it. Feed Reader or News Aggregator software does the job of grabbing the RSS Feed automatically. We just have to read it or dump it.

The benefit is lots of saved time and saved mailbox space. We don’t need to hop over to each site individually or subscribe to their newsletters. But there’s a lot more that we can do with RSS. All of it has to do with grabbing news and what’s new on the web. My personal favorite is about movies and grabbing torrents. Raise your IM or Twitter experience. Or simply be “˜artsy fartsy’ as Karl says in his post on Wordle.


Every site or blog worth its salt has a feed and now it is a must-have just like an internal search bar. But then just when you start taking the little orange RSS icon for granted, there’s a site missing a RSS link.

Is it just the RSS link button missing or is it the entire RSS XML code? Cast your eye over the homepage. RSS icons are located not only near the top but also near the very bottom of the page. For example, Reuters has its itsy bitsy RSS icon at the very south.

If you can’t locate the RSS icon – Use the Common Feed Icon

The first task is to just look up towards the browser’s address bar. See the little orange icon which says “˜subscribe to this page’ on a mouseover? That’s the common feed icon, a feature of IE , Opera, Firefox and some other browsers these days. Google Chrome still does not have it though. When a browser opens a website on the homepage, it automatically searches for the site’s RSS feed using a specification called RSS Autodiscovery.

1_Common-Feed-Icon

RSS Autodiscovery is just a simple line of code included in the web code which tells the browser (and feed readers) – there’s a feed and you can subscribe to it. You can click on the icon and the browser’s feed reader or your own picks up the feed from the page.

If you got it but it isn’t working – check with a RSS Validator

RSS just like any other code – it has to follow certain rules and syntax. Errors generally follow when the rules are broken. A RSS Feed Validator checks a feed for problems.


3_W3C

You can pass the feed URL through a RSS Validator service and check whether the error is with the code or if it’s failing in the RSS Reader. Copy the RSS link and paste it into any of the free online RSS Feed Validators such as ““

W3C Feed Validation Service

RSS Validator
If you don’t have both – generate RSS feeds dynamically

There are several online tools that tackle the dilemma of a website or blog without a RSS link. All these web services create a feed “on the fly” and delivers the content to you in your feed reader. The technical method is called “˜HTML Scrapping’ and it lets these services build a RSS feed from a site which does not have one. Using these tools you can catch feed lacking sites as they change content.

Here are a few :


Feed43

5_Feed43

With Feed43, it’s basically a three step process. Starting with the URL of the webpage, you have to define “˜search patterns’ (i.e. which content is good and which is not). This allows the tool to extract the information (i.e. snippets of text or HTML) and build the feed.

Finally, specify the output template (i.e. the look of the feed) and pick up the generated feed with your feed reader. Setting up a search pattern and defining the template might put off the average user (there is a step-by-step guide). So the power of this site might only appeal to the expert user.

The site requires a free registration and email verification.

FeedYes

6_FeedYes

Works simply. Just put in a URL of the homepage or a sub-page and create your feed. A few steps lets you filter out undesirable links after FeedYes does its own cleanup job. In this way you can obtain the specific section you are interested in.

To save your feeds, the site requires a login.

FeedFire

5A_FeedFire

Registration is a must but it’s simple and quick. The RSS feed is generated in a jiffy. The free account though does not filter all the links it finds. The paid subscription gives the more advanced options.

PonyFish

7_PonyFish

The odd name apart, the web service generates a feed in five steps from any URL. You can choose links within the site to get updates only from those selected sections. Though signing up is not compulsory, it helps to release more features like storing the feed, tweaking it and getting more updates (once every four hours).

RSSPECT

8_RSSPECT

Allows you to create feeds for any website or document. The free account allows for four feeds per account. Other features let you create personalized feeds for your own website and your podcasts. All feeds are free and without advertisements.

We have earlier covered three other great RSS online services at MakeUseOf.com. All three are flexible tools for creating tracking websites on the fly –

HOMECOMPUTINGHOW TO HACK RSS AND ATOM FEEDS
How to Hack RSS and Atom Feeds

This article is an excerpt from the ExtremeTech book Hacking RSS and Atom. This feature explains what RSS and Atom feeds are and how you can build an aggregator, route feeds to your inbox and buddy list, subscribe to multimedia content, and more.

What are RSS and Atom feeds? If you’re reading this, then it’s pretty likely you’ve already seen links to feeds (things such as “Syndicate this Site” or the ubiquitous orange-and-white “RSS” buttons) starting to pop up on all of your favorite sites. In fact, you might already have secured a feed reader or aggregator and stopped visiting most of your favorite sites in person. The bookmarks in your browser have started gathering dust since you stopped clicking through them every day. And, if you’re like some feed addicts, you’re keeping track of what’s new from more Web sites and news sources than you ever have before, or even thought possible.

If you’re a voracious infovore like me and this story doesn’t sound familiar, then you’re in for a treat. RSS and Atom feeds—collectively known as syndication feeds—are behind one of the biggest changes to sweep across the Web since the invention of the personal home page. These syndication feeds make it easy for machines to surf the Web, so you don’t have to.

So far, syndication feed readers won’t actually read or intelligently digest content on the Web for you, but they will let you know when there’s something new to peruse and can collect it in an inbox, like email.
In fact, these feeds and their readers layer the Web with features not altogether different than email newsletters and Usenet newsgroups, but with much more control over what you receive and none of the spam. With the time you used to spend browsing through bookmarked sites checking for updates, you can now just get straight to reading new stuff presented directly. It’s almost like someone is publishing a newspaper tailored just for you.

From the publishing side of things, when you serve up your messages and content using syndication feeds, you make it so much easier for someone to keep track of your updates—and so much more likely that they will stay in touch since, once someone has subscribed to your feed, it’s practically effortless to stay tuned in. As long as you keep pushing out things worthy of an audience’s attention, syndication feeds make it easier to slip into their busy schedules and stay there.

Furthermore, the way syndication feeds slice the Web up into timely capsules of microcontent allows you to manipulate, filter, and remix streams of fluid online content in a way never seen before. With the right tools, you can work toward applications that help more cleverly digest content and sift through the firehose of information available. You can gather resources and collectively republish, acting as the editorial newsmaster of your own personal news wire. You can train learning machines to filter for items that match your interests. And, the possibilities offered by syndication will only expand as new kinds of information and new types of media are carried and referenced by feed items.
But that’s enough gushing about syndication feeds. Let’s get to work figuring out what these things are, under the hood, and how you can actually do some of the things promised earlier. Continued…
