The Ajax RSS News Aggregator For Your Own Site: Backbase

Though little discussed and attracting yet too little attention for its critical importance is the issue of how we can consume and digest news when we have so many news sources and content to tap into.

One way to go at that is to start aggregating and filtering out what is not relevant to you, by either selecting a few resources that do this job for you (by aggregating, selecting and filtering news items on specific topics or themes - just like some top bloggers do - or you can start doing it yourself.

I myself publish over 30 different news channels which are available as RSS feeds on different sites. But even for expert web readers finding all these feeds and making sense of this ocean of content I publish is not an easy task.

For these reasons and for my desire to test, experiment and evaluate first-hand new media technologies that allow individuals to communicate more effectively, I have spent some time exploring and testing one of the most interesting web-based readers and aggregators I have seen so far.

Completely Ajax-based, this news feed aggregator does in my humble opinion an outstanding job of bringing together in one web page my most relevant content while providing easy and direct access to it.

And further than that, it not only looks slick, it works fast, it updates in real-time, it integrates printing and emailing of any news item it displays, it adjusts in one click to your layout preferences, but it also archives each and every news item I publish and it provides a super-cool advanced search function which allows searches across all of my sites and feeds as well as the capability to save any such search as an RSS feed.

That means that from now on, you can create any custom RSS feed of Robin Good’s contents by personalizing it to output ONLY the type of news you want to see from me.
