Feeds One of the key attributes of gRSShopper is the harvester. This application scans websites for web feeds which it then retrieves and displays to the user for reading and processing. In a cMOOC one of the core student activities is to create blogs and submit their feed to the MOOC. So here's what it looks like right now: Figure 80 - Basic feed submission form Now this works - if you submit the feed, it submits it to the database. A feed is a content source. MORE

LiveScience has a spectacularly bad article that covers the toxicology results of Rudy Eugene, the ‘Miami cannibal’ who was immediately labelled as being high on ‘ bath salts ‘ and was predictably, not high on bath salts. But don’t let the Parp! Clown Taxi notion of drugs causing cannibalism put you off from suggesting that drugs cause cannibalism because the article makes a point of carefully considering which substances were responsible for the face eating.

A serialized feed is one in which posts are arranged in a linear order and where subscribers always begin with the first post, no matter when they subscribe to the feed. This contrasts with an ordinary RSS feed, in which a subscriber will begin with today's post, no matter when the feed started. The idea of serialized feeds has been around for a while. And Russell Beattie offers serialized books via his Mobdex serialized feeds system. MORE

You're about halfway through your project. You've done everything right. The project plan is going swimmingly and you've entered the design phase. Fast forward a few weeks later and you are slowly losing interest. Creativity is ebbing. Your attention span starts to wane. The wind has left your sails—you've hit the project doldrums. I've worked on some looooong projects, some with one- or two-year long cycles. MORE
Using the gardener or landscaper metaphor, yesterday I said that networks need seeding, feeding, and weeding. Feed : you can’t just put in place, you have to nurture the network. In my presentation yesterday, I was talking about how to get informal learning going. As many have noted, it’s about moving from a notion of being a builder, handcrafting (or mass-producing) solutions, to being a facilitator, nurturing the community to develop it’s own capabilities.

In my recent keynotes I have frequently used variations on my Transformation of Business framework , which looks at how Technology Drivers and Social Drivers lead to a changed Business Landscape , and in turn New Drivers of Success. In looking at the world around, us, the shift that is the most apparent to many is the pace of technological change, with in the order of 100-fold increases in processing power, storage efficiency, and fixed and mobile bandwidth over the last decade.

Someone pointed out that many bloggers use partial feeds which forces readers to their blog. I started with full feeds and then found myself curious about who my readers were. Ah, so to fix that I decided to change my feed to a partial feed so you only get the first paragraph. What I've learned since: Partial feeds are annoying as a blog reader, so I was being annoying providing a partial feed. MORE
This raises an important issue: should we design for multitasking behavior, or are we feeding a habit that is a gateway to distraction and overall work inefficiency? During a recent research and strategy project at Adaptive Path, our team uncovered a fascinating pattern around media multitasking—most participants between 20 and 30 years of age watched TV or movies while engaging with laptops, iPads, and smart phones.

However, what I had hoped to find was a way for AideRSS to send me a feed of the top few posts across a large set of RSS feeds (like the 3,000 or so edublogs).

I do use Feedly as my feed reader and subscribe to my own site, so I can ensure that the RSS feed is working. Feedly also gives me an idea of how popular a post is. Over the past 6 years that Feedly has been keeping track of my site I have written over 1,000 posts. Currently, I have written 3,170 posts on this blog. I don’t have any surveillance technologies (analytics) here, so I don’t know how many people read my work, or how much they like it. MORE

Responding to Dan Lockton : Not all feeds are designed to spread the article-length content of blogs. One of my own feeds , for example, will at first glance resemble a partial feed. On closer examination, my feed turns out to be linking to longer posts from other sites.
