Social bookmarks as a Podcast [blog.del.icio.us]
For those of you who don't know, del.icio.us is a free bookmarking service where you can keep your bookmarks well organised, and browse through other people's bookmarks. You can do neat stuff like see who else bookmarked the same thing that you did, or see what people are bookmarking with particular tags. (For instance if you're a Ruby programmer, following http://del.icio.us/tag/ruby gives you an insight to whats new & happening on the web with regards to Ruby.
dsl.icio.us is what powers my site's "Recent Links" box that you will see just to the left. You can see every link I have ever bookmarked with del.icio.us at http://del.icio.us/aufflick . Well the del.icio.us guys have just had a brilliant idea, and added enclosure support to their RSS feeds where the enclosure is driven by the file extension of the bookmarked url (not foolproof, but very simple & intuitive). What does this mean for you? Well, take this example: http://del.icio.us/rss/tag/system:filetype:mp3+mashups That's an iTunes compatible Podcast reflecting every mp3 file that any del.icio.us user has bookmarked and tagged with the keyword mashup. Pretty damn cool if you ask me! 04:18 PM, 22 Aug 2005 by Mark Aufflick Permalink | Comments (1) |
