Blogs on WAP

October 16, 2003 08:55 PM


So finally there we are, RSS feeds on the mobile! Blogstreet has launched the RSS2Mobile service yesterday and they already have a fan in me. Now I can keep track of blogs while on the move too. One suggestion I would like to give them is to make available a bookmark facility so that WAP users are not left with typing long urls to access RSS feeds of blogs they read. All you do is create your bookmarks using your login on Blogstreet and later access these via WAP. That would really be the icing on the cake. For now, you can access any blog (which has an RSS feed) using the following url -

http://blogstreet.com/wap/t/<RSS feed url>

e.g. to access my blog's feed, you access this url -

http://blogstreet.com/wap/t/nilesh.org/weblog/index.xml

Go, have fun. BTW, they are planning to integrate this service with their existing RSS subscription model which is good, though I would prefer a bookmarks thing.

We have added a new way of reading RSS feeds using RSS2Mobile.

http://blogstreet.com/rss2mobile.wml

Now one can bookmark this URL and read feeds by going to that page and just typing the RSS URL in a text box over there.

Try http://www.RSS2WAP.com (or wap.rss2wap.com from mobile). It's online free RSS to WML converter (no registration is necessary)
