Comments on: Going Retro with RSS http://nnlm.gov/pnr/dragonfly/2009/02/10/retro/ News from the Pacific Northwest Regional Medical Library Wed, 10 Mar 2010 20:38:51 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Alisha Miles http://nnlm.gov/pnr/dragonfly/2009/02/10/retro/comment-page-1/#comment-1282 Alisha Miles Thu, 19 Feb 2009 01:48:14 +0000 http://nnlm.gov/pnr/dragonfly/?p=738#comment-1282 Thank you for this great post. I know I can probably use Tabbloid and FeedJournal to create some newsletters for the library. It is always great to find these types of tools that will save you time without costing you. The only problem is there are so many tools that it is hard to keep up! So I really appreciate you going over some of these new tools. If you know of a tool that will synch all social media (twitter, rss, friendfeed, blogs, etc.) in one, then let me know via twitter, Alisha764. I am interested in Google's SocialStream (really just funded by Google, not owned by it, yet) but I have not seen anything else similar, and Google's version isn't out yet. So tweet me if you know of one that you really like, or any other web2.0 tool. TY ~ Alisha Follow me on twitter: Alisha764 Thank you for this great post.

We're hoping to add EndNote and a freely available one. Roddy Alison,

There is also a service (odiogo.com) that converts rss to speech. It should be possible to uses that together with podlinez. The podlinez service looks very promising.

It is a very impressive project! I like that ticTOCSs creates a simple link to a particular table of contents, AND that citations can be exported to RefWorks. That's a very nice feature. How does it work with Zotero and EndNote? Thanks, Roddy, for chiming in about ticTOCs. It is a very impressive project!

Wow—really useful post! I just tweeted it. Interesting about RSS to PDF and podcasts to your phone. There are so many ways to covert this or that form of content to this or that medium. Talk about having it your way. The RSS to PDF tools sound especially useful for multifaceted outreach efforts. And if you have no friends, you can at least get phone calls of podcasts on your phone—ho ho. I use Feed My Inbox—it works like a dream. Great way to keep up on useful blogs. Hi, Alison.
