The first article on Taking RSS Beyond Headlines was very popular (mainly due to it's proliferation on Digg and the resulting "Digg Effect.") It's great to see this kind of interest and curiosity around RSS. Of course, latching a "Part One" on the end of the last article put an enormous amount of pressure to take a stab at a "Part Two."
And so, without further delay, let's take RSS beyond headlines, again...
Credit goes to some of the commenters on the last article for a few of the tips here. In all of this insanity, let's not forget that we can still use RSS to track newspapers, magazines and blogs (heh). In a future post, I'd like to list out possible uses of RSS that I'd like to use but don't exist yet (or at least that I don't know about). Hopefully, the creative use of RSS will continue to grow. I think these last two articles are just the tip of the iceberg. Until then, happy feedreading.
To embed YouTube video players (or an mp3 player) automatically for RSS content try FeedRaider ( http://feedraider.com ) for setting up a page of videos, comics, audio and news.
Posted by: Nakke at October 10, 2006 2:31 PMIs there a way to take data from rss feeds and post it on a web site? Like reposting an article from a news rss feed onto your own site.

The site is free, and perhaps the most comprehensive biomedical site on the web. It has all PubMed and MedLine documents, plus mililons more (often in full text).
It also has account features such as portfolios to save documents, the ability to share documents (and comment on them) between users, and set up automatic alerts.
