This is a cool tool if I’ve ever seen one…
Since I’m such a darn geek, I like to keep track of my University’s IT Bulletin, which does not have an RSS feed. I’ll admit, I cannot understand why not given the size of my school, but hey.
So here is the original page…
Fairly straightforward, easy enough to read, and now you know where I go to grad school!
Thanks to CybernetNews I found this really great new tool called Feedity that takes any web site without RSS and makes it all RSS’ey and tasty!
I zipped over to it, pasted in the URL and voila, I had a new RSS feed and there was even a convenient little drop down box to allow me to subscribe with Bloglines (my favorite little aggregator).
Cool. I’ll have to let you know how updates work…
