Oh, I really like that idea. how do you set up that feed?
- tfinniga 14y agoReddit already produces the top items feeds, so that's easy. For example, the weekly top proggit feed is http://www.reddit.com/r/programming/top/.rss?sort=top&t=week http://www.reddit.com/r/programming/top/.rss?sort=top&t=... You just add .rss to the url you get when browsing, before the args. Then I used yahoo pipes to extract the top 3 items from that feed. I take the output of the yahoo pipe as input for my RSS reader, which collapses duplicates. I used google reader, so I didn't even need to open up my RSS reader for the top items to accumulate. Here's the URL of the top 2 daily proggit posts: http://pipes.yahoo.com/pipes/pipe.info?_id=ee7c0181150e421faa779b218d366f04 http://pipes.yahoo.com/pipes/pipe.info?_id=ee7c0181150e421fa...
