The Nooked Directory

The folks at Nooked are about making corporate communications more efficient through the use of RSS. In order for this to be effective however, they decided that they need to offer up a RSS directory that would allow their users to find the feeds that they were looking for. Cool, but be aware that the directory is still pretty new, thus still lacking in content.

At Nooked, we make software for creating, publishing and measuring RSS feeds. In testing our software, we sought out a wide variety of corporate RSS feeds. We discovered that these were difficult to locate. We were eventually reduced to visiting individual sites and arduous Google, Technorati and PubSub searches.

During this process, we concluded that there should be a directory of feeds, to help people find them and encourage their use. Of course, we already had a fledging database of corporate RSS feeds.

We decided to launch the Nooked RSS Directory. Anyone can add feeds using the Submit page, search our database or browse the feeds using categories. We’re hoping that this will grow into a valuable resource to help all sorts of professionals: journalists monitoring a particular industry, companies keeping an eye on the competition, analysts doing research and so on.

Have a look around. If your organization has an RSS feed, please submit it.
