This site features online text and html changing, modifying, converting tools designed to save you time making web pages or preparing text for web publication. If you've ever needed to capitalize sentences or convert line breaks to <p> or <br /> then this site can save you needless manual labor. There are other useful tools as well, like the one to uncompress html to make it readable and the ones to uppercase or lowercase text. Basically, the most common tasks that someone who works in an office or does freelance web development might encounter. Most of the tools have been created using javascript so you should be able to change large amounts of text as the processing is done on your computer instead of being limited by a server script.

As the name says, this is the ultimate RSS toolbox for every reading or publishing tool you might need. This includes a review of RSS readers by platform, mobile RSS readers, email to RSS converters, RSS feed formatting checkers, stat packages, ping tools and on and on.

You will also find a well-rounded guide to RSS "mixer" tools. These mixer tools are basically RSS editors that allow you to blend RSS feeds from different sources together, getting on the feeds that correspond to your preferences, which are created by choosing and assigning keyword tags. You can also add in content from other media sources such as podcast or audio feeds. Publishers can use a mixer tool to create customized feeds culled from a variety of (accredited) sources for your subscribers. The benefit to your subscribers is that you are the discerning editor who merges specific content from multiple sources (including your own) to create feeds that are uniquely targeted to your readers' needs.

Pipes is a content creation tool (or "mixer") that allows you to aggregate, manipulate, mashup, tag and filter content from around the Web. Content can be from a variety of sources such as RSS feeds, XML feeds, Google Maps, podcasts, Twitter, Flickr and other social sharing sites and so on. Your "pipe", or content, is a unique combination of information that you filter, edit and publish for specific end users -- either for yourself or your subscribers. Think of it as an old-fashioned clipping service that you can use for your own private edification... or you can take the compilation that this tool built for you and republish it on your site. Your blended feed showing snippets from other publisher's feeds does show the source from which it came. Think of it as a byline.

For example, you could filter incoming feeds and posts from all the best search engine marketing blogs and SEM resources using a keyword tag such as "Google AdWords tips" and get every tip from around the Web the second it is published (btw, that's a valuable RSS feed to offer to your subscribers if you are an SEO firm). Or you could create your own brand protection mixer that monitors what the world is saying about your brand, company, product or URL in Google Blogs, Technorati, IceRocket, Blog Pulse, Yahoo News, MSN News and Google News. This is a must-watch trend for Internet marketers. [WDFM Annotation]

To publish your RSS feed you need to segment your data, links and tags and whatnot into a number of individual fields, some of which are required and some of which are optional. The title, link and content are easy, but what about "text input" or "TTL (Time to Live)" or "GUID (Global Unique Identifier)"? If you're flummoxed, this is the go-to place for descriptions of all the settings and fields you need to know.

The "text input" setting allows a data entry box to be displayed within your feed. That data entry box can be filled out by the subscriber, who then pushes a button and drives an action. The action may be to send information back to the publisher, or the publisher may allow the subscriber to do something else, such as enter a keyword and then be driven directly to Google for those search results. "TTL" refers to the number of minutes that the feed is allowed to be cached by a server before the feed needs to be refreshed. And the "GUID" is a string that uniquely identifies an item. When present, a feed reader may choose to use this string to determine if an item is new. [WDFM Annotation]
