Speedwagon Rolls Out Category Feeds
August 14, 2007
In an effort to thrust ourselves into 2005, we're happy to announce the rollout of category-specific feeds in addition to our blog's regular "global" XML feed. In other words, if you're completely addicted to corporate reputation management (feed) and Wikipedia (feed) articles but simply can't fathom suffering through another crawling and indexing (feed) lecture, you're in luck.
At the left, you'll see a portion of our list of categories. The full list is always in the left column of the site. As usual, clicking the text itself takes you to all posts in that category. But what's new is the little green RSS button to the left of the text. That takes you to the feed for that category. So to subscribe to a particular category feed, just right-click the button next to your favorite category, copy the link location, and paste it into your feed reader/aggregator.
Big thanks to an old but very effective tutorial that made it very easy to do in Movable Type.
The next step would probably be offering the ability to create "combination" feeds that let users select categories a la carte and merge the selected feeds into one master feed. I'm not quite ready to tackle that yet on an automated scale, but you could certainly set up a Yahoo Pipe and accomplish the same thing.
