Hi all!
Not sure if anybody's posted anything on this, but I've noticed the addition of RSS feeds on DU. I thought some folks might like a no-nonsense guide to adding DU's breaking news to your own website. It's Really Simple to Syndicate the lastest breaking foibles of our useless little chimpy!
Just paste this:
<script language="JavaScript" src="http://jade.mcli.dist.maricopa.edu/feed/feed2js.php?src=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.democraticunderground.com%2Frss%2Fhome_feed.php&chan=y&desc=1&date=y&targ=y" type="text/javascript"></script>
<noscript>
<a href="http://jade.mcli.dist.maricopa.edu/feed/feed2js.php?src=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.democraticunderground.com%2Frss%2Fhome_feed.php&chan=y&desc=1&date=y&targ=y&html=y">View RSS feed</a>
</noscript>
Anywhere in a web page. That's it. Takes about ten seconds.
Here's an example that I made in about ten seconds:
http://dave.hero.com/democratic_u.html(On edit - I just realized that you might want to 'view source' on my page to get the correct code - DU likes to truncate code snippets for some reason).If you're the webmaster type, you can also add css styles to the header to make it look however you'd like.
Sure; you can subscribe to DU in a newsreader, but you can also add it to your own site, lickety-split. That helps spread DU love around the world, baby!
Best,
Dave
