Grab RSS feeds of feed-less sites
I had a crib against Y!’s OurCity for not publishing RSS feeds. Though I can always wait for Y! to enables feeds, a handy solution comes from Feedity.
Feedity is a web feed generator for web pages without an existing syndication format like RSS or Atom.
And all you need to do is enter the site URL and Feedity will provide you the relevant RSS feeds.
The best part about this tool is it’s simple to use and if marketed well, can be used extensively by non-techie-small businesses around the globe.
Read founder’s blog. Watch the tutorial video. Have a look at the Webpage-to-RSS pipe.
Also see review of desktop/offline feed readers.
