A now "deceased" website on RSS marketing and RSS publishing - a look at the history of internet marketing

A Note from the Author: The RSS Diary is Closed

rssdiary.marketingstudies.net was built to help marketers get the most from RSS. However, much has changed since the site was last updated in 2007 - and it's pretty fair to say that it's now completely outdated.

Since I've moved on to other interests in internet marketing years ago, the site is now officially closed, and only remains online as an archive of a part of internet marketing's past. This is how we used to see RSS between 2004 - 2007. We don't, anymore, but there's no harm in having a small part of our past available online.

With that, I'm also making the e-book that started all of this, Unleas the Marketing and Publishing Power of RSS, available for free download.

Making RSS Easier to Pay Attention To

 
 

We already covered this issue a couple of times: RSS is great, but when you're subscribed to dozens of RSS feeds you start losing track of everything ... and then eventually might even stop using it altogether.

Here are some new services that will help you make sure that doesn't happen.

a] Touchstone: The Attention Management Engine
Touchstone allows you to easily decide what content you're paying attention to. It's simple, Touchstone follows your RSS reading habits, allows you to setup filters for what's more important, and then streams only the most relevant info via RSS to your RSS Reader. The only problem - it's not public yet.

b] FeedRinse: Filter Your RSS Feeds
FeedRinse allows you to create filters to sort out the most relevant content from the feeds you are subscribing to. The basic service is free and the pro service is only $6.
