Ways to Tame Your Wild Growth of RSS Feeds
Personally, I useFeedlyto manage my RSS feeds.
Aside from costing nothing, Feedly also offers a wide number ofChrome and other web app extensions.
These features turn it into an ideal platform for consuming RSS feeds for almost everyone.
For the whole lowdown of this popular Google Reader replacement, go over to ourFeedly tips.
I prefer using Feedly with automation enabling web apps, IFTTT, and Yahoo Pipes.
It also worksdevastatinglywell with RSS filtering apps, like the powerfulFeed Rinse.
Or if you prefer it on the go, catch our list ofAndroid-based RSS readers.
Folders allow the grouping of similar feeds into customized categories.
These categories can then be viewed or read according to the reader’s preferences.
High priority feeds generally are best read in a magazine-like style, which includes the full-text and its images.
Low priority feeds are best read using list view, which displays only the titles of the articles.
The process for creating folders varies between readers.
After that, you’ve got the option to drag and drop items into each folder/category.
Yahoo Pipes:Yahoo Pipes provides all manner of organizational tools for RSS feeds.
Out of all the RSS aggregation and filtering apps, Yahoo Pipes is easily themost powerfulever created.
Unfortunately, it takes a great deal of knowledge to use properly.
However, for its most basic functions,setting up a Yahoo Pipeisn’t very difficult.
Feed Rinse:Feed Rinse can either eliminate, or select articles from a feed based on keywords.
FeedSifter:Another option is FeedSifter, which functions in the same manner as Feed Rinse.
From then on, you will receive feeds only including your chosen keyword.
However, some subjects that you might find in your RSS feeds could require immediate consumption.
Fortunately, a variety of software can provide immediate notifications based on the presence of keywords.
Out of all the apps out there, IFTTT is easily the best.
It can evensave or make you money.
We even have afree IFTTT guidethat shows you how to use it.
This requires some setting up though.
Tons of tools exist that can de-clutter your feeds.
