At Mullies we have recently discussed RSS feeds as a way to keep up to date with websites and articles of interest. Here’s the link to the last item RSS - It's really simple

For those who prefer their news in an email/newsletter format below is a way to subscribe to feeds and have them delivered to you via email. I know some of you like to hoard, I mean archive, all your articles and storing the pdfs would be a great way to do that.

To use this service you will need to copy the url/address for the feed and paste it into the service at the Tabbloid site.

So if Google Reader or another RSS reader application doesn’t float your boat you might prefer this – give Tabbloid a go

 

RSS Feeds are probably the best way of receiving updates from favorite websites and services. They are however still more of a thing for the technical inclined Internet users and largely ignored by the average users. They do have a few other limitations like only being viewable in applications that support RSS News Feeds.

One option that has become popular in recent months is to create pdf documents out of RSS News Feeds which solves the accessibility problem. Tabbloid is a relatively new Internet service that can turn RSS News Feeds into pdf documents and send those news digest right to the user’s inbox.

This is done by pasting RSS News Feed urls into the form on the main Tabbloid website. The service will check the feed, display a preview of the last news items that have been posted and ask the user to accept or reject it. If the user accepts the feed it gets added to the list of feeds that will be processed.

It is possible to add multiple feeds which would then all be used to fill the pdf document. Options exist to generate the pdf right at the website or set delivery options to receive the pdf document in the inbox. The possible intervals are hourly, daily or weekly.
