Hi all,
Is no-one using RDF or RSS to do this?
We've been playing with RDF/RSS in this domain a little over the past
couple of weeks and are generating our own newsfeeds (see
http://www.schin.ncl.ac.uk/news/xml.asp for an example)
We have been looking at http://www.xmltree.com/ as our main source of feeds
of this type. We've also written a custom perl script to translate the RSS
into something useful.
What are people doing with this, is this seen as a useful direction?
Cheers,
T
