RSS, Videoblogs and Ant
For those who are familiar with the RSS thing, do you think we could make a list of links to some interesting videoblogs/video RSS websites and such which might be interesting for people like us? Btw, does anybody know how to subscrivbe to videos.antville via RSS?
you can find the videos.antville.org-rss-feed here: videos.antville.org
thanks mate do you know hoy can i add it to ant, this software for mac? i dont understand much how it works, dont know how to add things
erm, as far as i can tell, ANT only digests videoblog feeds, not simple rss feeds. you can feed the antville rss to a newsreader (netnewswire or tickershock or any of the others) and you'll get the antville stories as they come in. since antville is not a videoblog, you can't watch antville in ANT.
presumably someone could refashion the antville stories into an antville videoblog (don't know how far that could be automated). sure, that'd be nice, but i can't see why anyone would volunteer their time/bandwidth to it...
If you are running OSX 10.4, you can easily view the RSS feed in Safari. Just paste videos.antville.org into the little address bar at the top.
Personally, I use Bloglines to follow Antville and all the other blogs I read. Since it's a webpage, you can read it from any browser, and when you're traveling, you can keep track of your feeds even if you can't get your hands on your own computer.
on the subject of videoblogs: apparently you can even watch them in the new itunes 4.9. see here: blogumentary.typepad.com
