RSS Mix

I came across an unsual situation for me the other day; I wanted to add a single feed to my NewsGator that aggregated all the WWF feeds found on www.WindowsWorkflow.net

It seemed a little silly (and hard to manage) to add a dozen or so bloggers individually when I didn't know any of them from Adam. I just want to keep up with progress in the WWF world as part of my planning for Community Server 3.0.

I asked my boss and blogging God1 ScottW if he knew of any way to do this, and of course he did. Where do people find out about all these wonderful toys? My water cooler in the kitchen certainly isn't the place - very stingy amounts of gossip going on there unless you count the pouting by my 11yo about not having a cellphone (she's apparently the ONLY 11yo girl in suburbia without a pink Razr).

So Scott pointed me at RSS Mix, and pretty handy it is too. You can't (I think) edit your aggregated feeds once created, but you can easily create a new one based on the old, so it's not hard to add/delete feeds to the new one.

FWIW, my new WWF feed is:

1 He's my boss, what do you expect me to say?
