EASY subscribing RSS and converting RSS-Links from OCS and OPML

Little tool QuickSub by Jasom Brome is a great little DHTML-enhancement for your XML-links… it gives you the ability to provide your users a wild selection of Aggregators to choose from for the subscription (Radio Userland, Amphetadesk, NewsMonster, SharpReader etc… )... But of course this is a publisher-only feature.

For the feed consumers the Syndication Subscription Service by MFD-Consult is a handy little tool for your OPML or OCS directory if you want to view it to subscribe pieces of it.

If you instead need to Import an OCS (i.e. from NewzCrawler) to Export it for SharpReader you can use (like I did) the NewsDesk as I did just before…

SharpReader is an RSS Aggregator for the .NET framework with a plugin that integrates w.bloggar – the famous blogging tool rather nice… What I like about w.bloggar a quite comprehensive interface and easy FTP support for picture uploading… This couple is sure a best-of-breed approach to bulk newsreading and blogging, ha?
