Anyway I've made the correction. If there is anything else I've misstated or got wrong please let me know. Also if you want to use the photos for any purpose then do so.<br></p>WalwynTue, 08 Jan 2013 13:20:50 -0000http://thewhineseller.com/2011/07/full-content-rss-excerpt-spam-blogs-content-thieves/#comment-246587888<p>I've subscribed to rss feeds for about 10 years now. Mostly the readers I've used have displayed the feed in a sidebar with just a title, or a title and a hover popup of the first part of the post. As a personal consumer of rss feeds that has always been sufficient.</p><p>Now I'm considering adding a sidebar to my website that combines rss feeds from related sites. Unfortunately the plugin not only displays the titles and links, but  will also display the entire contents of the rss feeds on a single page. If the feeds are snippets then, I think that would be fine, if they are full content posts, then I think not so fine and the rss can't be used.</p><p>As a further development I have software that can take each rss feed item and convert it into archived elements within the site. These items can then be returned in searches, or collations within the site. So suppose someone comes to the site to read an entry on Van Gogh and then searches the site for Gauguin, I may have written nothing about him, but if you had written an article a year previously that had been picked up via rss then the entry would be returned in the search. Obviously to do that one would want agreement of the originator, but again I think that snippets would work a lot better for that type of application.<br></p>WalwynSat, 09 Jul 2011 05:18:41 -0000
