Hinweis der Redaktion
- Approx 1hr 50 minutes into session. Filtering a feed. RSS feeds are great but quite addictive and you’ll soon find that you have lots of unread feeds unless you are very selective about what you subscribe to. Filters are one way to make sure that you just get the information you need. Feedsifter basic as you can easily filter a feed work by creating a new feed that you can subscribe to – means you can still receive the original but also have a cut down version. Have to use Firefox to filter Zetoc RSS feeds as it doesn’t work in Internet Explorer for Zetoc (e.g. Zetoc Journal feeds can come as RSS feeds) Make sure it’s the FEED URL you type in Multiple keywords per one search are comma separated (AND operator) on the same line – no space after the comma Can expand a search by using words on different lines (OR operator) DEMO one of the news feeds searched earlier – i.e. Durham library or BBC filter using a couple of keywords on each line – will bring back more results – use one word on each line filter using two words on the same line(s) - to bring back less results - use a comma to separate words (no space after the comma) Mention Pipes (Yahoo) but don’t demo - more info on the handout: looks more daunting but ok to use and very flexible. Can be more sophisticated with your filter than with Feedsifter. you can bring together lots of feeds, sort them, filter them by author or descriptor and then create a new RSS feed from that to read in your usual reader.
