"Feed Your Reader" Firefox Feed
Extension

"Feed Your Reader" Firefox Feed
Extension 09/20/2004 10:22 AM

When Firefox add ed RSS support, I had mixed reactions. On the one hand, I was excited by the boost RSS would receive by being supported in a popular browser. But on the other hand, for obvious reasons I wasn't wild about how Firefox built RSS into the browser without enabling users to choose an external RSS reader.

So, I was glad when several FeedDemon customers talking about building an extension to enable FeedDemon to take advantage of the new Firefox RSS features.

Michael Koziarski rose to the challenge and created F eed Your Reader, a Firefox extension that enables you to subscribe to feed in FeedDemon - or any other RSS reader that supports the feed: // protocol. Which means that even though the extension was designed with FeedDemon in mind, it's not specific to FeedDemon. Initial tests show that it also works with NetNewsWire on the Mac.

Once this extension is installed, you'll see an additional "FYR" icon in Firefox's status bar right next to the existing RSS icon. Clicking the FYR icon displays a menu of auto-discovered feeds, and clicking one of these feeds will display FeedDemon's "New Channel" wizard to subscribe to it.

Details on Feed Your Reader are h ere, and the project page is here. If you're viewing this in Firefox, the download link to the XPI (extension) is here .

Michael Koziarski: Once you’ve installed FYR you’ll see a new Feed Icon () in the status bar, that behaves just like the live bookmarks menu. However, instead of opening the bookmarks menu, selecting an item will launch your Feed Reader. [via Nick Bradbury] Cool! Wishlist: allow an option to support http://www.bloglines.com/sub/ instead of feed: instructions on how to remove the current icon, making this a replacement instead of an addition replaceable icon - to me it makes sense to display the icon of your feed reader instead Is the source to this extension available?

Onfolio: An interesting new app for organizing information you find online. It'd be better, I think, as a Web-based app rather than a client tool. Watch the Flash presentation here for the quick skinny.

On another note, is $29.95 is standard Web-related application price these days?

Onfolio is a PC application for collecting, organizing and sharing information you find online. Fully integrated with Microsoft Internet Explorer and Office, Onfolio has tools for capturing a wide range of content including links, text snippets, images, web pages, and documents. Onfolio lets you organize and find captured content quickly and easily. And with Onfolio, you can easily share your research in documents, presentations, emails, and research reports.

Onfolio almost reached the status of shiny object, but I just paved and reloaded this machine, and I don't want to clutter it up with junk (actually, if truth be told, my wife ordered me not to clutter it up with junk).

Besides, they used the word "seamless" in the presentation, and that's a big red flag right there. If anyone ever uses "seamless" and "robust" together, dispatch a hit team to their corporate headquarters immediately.

Onfolio, Micro-content, and Search
Information Management

Onfolio, Micro-content, and Search
Information Management 04/09/2004 04:08 PM

Today, Onfolio Inc. launched their namesake product Onfolio, helping to shape and define a new and important category in Internet software -- search information management. 

Onfolio helps Internet users to easily collect, organize and share their research.  The product is built around the idea that 'search' has become the most common Internet activity, yet end-users have had virtually no good tools to help them manage and share all the "micro-content" that they find on the Internet.

The product tightly integrates into Internet Explorer, Microsoft Office and the Windows desktop, enabling users to capture fragments of content from web pages, email, RSS feeds, and their desktop.  In essence, users create content 'collections', personal databases of micro-content that can be organized and searched locally, but then re-composed into reports that can be shared via email, posted as websites, and published as RSS feeds.

Forbes.com characterizes it's essential role:  "Onfolio faces head-on the problem of information overload, giving Internet users ways to capture and reuse the many tidbits they come across in everyday Internet use."

The uses of the product touch anyone who seriously uses the Web, whether for personal or professional use.  The Onfolio website has some great usage examples to help spark your imagination.

Onfolio was founded by my brother J.J. Allaire, and also led by Allaire co-founders Adam Berrey and Charles Teague.  They've done a great job creating an exceptionally useful product that will help all of us become more productive users of information on the Internet.

I can personally attest that Onfolio has transformed my relationship with content on the Internet -- I am more in control of the surging amount of micro-content that floods websites, email, RSS feeds and beyond.  Thanks guys!

Kudos to StreamSec

Kudos to StreamSec 06/05/2005 11:07 PM

Just wanted to publicly thank Henrick Hellström of StreamSec for the excellent support he's provided me over the past few days. I had an urgent need for digital signature verification but had no prior experience with the topic, and Henrick was extremely helpful in getting me up to speed and getting my code in working order.

Given my experience with them, I can strongly recommend StreamSec to any Delphi developer who needs an encryption toolkit.

Wired's on a roll. In the October issue, they ran a page by Rebecca Harper that puts the effect of music sharing into perspective: The labels have released 14% fewer new CDs since 1999 and they've raised the prices 16% since 1997 (after adjusting for inflation). Yes, she says, file sharing has cost the industry money. "But what the RIAA doesn't want to admit is that the CD is reaching the end of its life cycle..." Then in the December issue (the one with Uma on the cover), they devote a part of a page to step-by-step instructions on how...

Kudos to Xcode group

Kudos to Xcode group 06/17/2005 04:30 PM
Another group at Apple that impressed me at WWDC this year was the folks behind Xcode.

Xcode 2.0 shipped with Tiger, at the end of April. Xcode 2.1 shipped less than two months later.

It includes support for universal binaries, of course—but that’s not all, there are a bunch of nice user features in there, including a bunch of debugging improvements and a welcome change to how build settings are configured.

(I suspect the release of 2.1 is a combination of good planning, good project management, and possibly a few late nights.)

Having this new version of Xcode makes the Intel transition credible—without it, it would be all hand-waving and telling developers how it will be easy once the tools are ready. Better to show us, as they’ve done, that it’s already easy.

marketing approach 04/06/2005 11:54 AM
If you work with a company that sells software, odds are that your approach to marketing and public relations is the same as it’s been for years: press releases, calls to magazine editors and reviewers, and perhaps a customer newsletter that announces updates and improvements. But we’re in the 21st century now, and savvy companies with sharp marketing teams are realizing that the industry has changed and that visibility is more about identifying and engaging…

Feed 0.6.4

Feed 0.6.4 04/08/2005 12:00 PM
Feed is a RSS and Atom news reader, with the latest version released in February 2005. The developer wrote this application because all of the existing freeware RSS readers were more of a "hybrid between iTunes and a web browser," and he wanted something that was more like an email client. The application is described as being "simple and familiar" including a single window interface, and it lives up to that claim. Because Feed is designed to work like a mail program, individual articles are displayed directly in Feed. The latest version of Feed now features drag and drop support, allowing the user to drag text and URL clippings directly into the Feed drawer from any application. Adding links from other applications is simple, and any feed or article can be dragged from Feed to another application that accepts Text or URL clippings. The application also features audio notifications allowing the user to choose any of the built in sounds to play when a new item becomes available. Articles can be bookmarked in the feed list with a simple command or by dragging the link to the Feed drawer, allowing articles to be grouped for later reading or to save an article indefinitely. The user has the option to completely customize the way feeds are managed and displayed with the drag and drop interface. Feeds can be grouped into folders and then display all articles in the group together. The application currently supports all versions of Atom and RSS allowing the importing and exporting of existing RSS feed subscriptions in the industry-standard OPML format. System Requirements: Mac OS X 10.3 or higher Pros: User-friendly Drag and drop Free Cons: No help available If your company has a product you would like Spymac to review, please send an email to news@spymac.com.

Wow, that's what I call feedback! It's a shame pretty much everyone hates the new design but I like it so it stays. I've taken a few tips though and tweaked the link colours a bit, as well as making a few other small changes such as a darker green for the header and a 1em margin around the page.

In an attempt to satiate the voracious appetite for RSS displayed by some of my visitors I've set up two new feeds: Blog comments and Blogmarks. I don't use an aggregator myself so I'd appreciate feedback on how well they work. I've also put together a blogmarks archive - no search engine yet, but it's on the list.

+1 for Feed URI Scheme

+1 for Feed URI Scheme 01/22/2004 02:12 AM

On the issue of whether to introduce a new URI scheme to allow one-click feed subscription, in spite of W3C Technical Architecture Group's position against new URI schemes, I am adding my vote to Dare Obasanjo's proposal which is already in fairly wide use.  While I understand W3C TAG's position, a less than ideal solution is better than expecting the world to accept the right solution.

If you are unfamiliar with this issue, Jon Udell has a post with links and words.

Update:

I should note that neither schemes address the need to support multiple aggregators at the same time.  I thought about writing a general feed subscription management plugin for IE but haven't found the time yet.
