Hi all, a couple of months ago I wrote a little script to turn the chapter news for any chapter into an RSS feed. Here's the URL:

http://bootleg-rss.g-blog.net/bungie_net_fanclubs.php?chapter =1027

This example is returning an RSS feed for chapter 1027, Chapter Founders. So if you want to get your chapter's news turned into RSS, change the number at the end of the URL to the one of your chapter.

Have fun.

PS: The feeds are refreshed every 2 hours.
PPS: Would be great if someone could pin this topic, assuming it's of interest.
PPPS: More free feeds on my Bootleg RSS site. ;)

Wow that's pretty cool! I probably won't use it myself, but a good thought! =)

For some reason the link isn't working for me, so could you possibly explain what a boodleg RSS feed is?

Nifty. I probably won't use it much myself, but i'm sure that it will make things alot easier for a lot of people.

RSS is a pure data format. It's basically content without any layout. You can feed the URL to your RSS aggregator (i.e. a news reader like Bloglines), and it'll notify you a) whether there are updates to the sites the feed belongs to and b) what the updates are about.

Finally, technology that does something useful. ;)

"Bootlegged" in this case means it's a guerilla feed for a site that doesn't have its own feeds. Someone stepped up and wrote a script to scrape the news off the site.

Hope that helps.

I like this a lot, but that advertisement message at the top is a little annoying. Oh, well...

Is it easy RSS or right-bastard RSS?

The message will only appear once, don't worry. It's just that I'm offering a good number of scraped feeds, and the sheer volume of requests is growing and growing, so I thought a one-time "wanna donate?" message per feed would be okay.

What's right-bastard RSS?

  • 04.16.2004 2:19 AM PDT

RSS 1.1 (also known as RDF).
We were trying to get Bungie to include this a while ago.

hmmm...the link isnt working for me!

  • 04.17.2004 11:37 AM PDT

It's in XML. Admittedly you'd expect it to display in IE, but it doesn't matter if it doesn't - this is purely for an RSS parser, such as FeedReader.

Why, what's wrong? Server timeout or anything?

If you're unsure what RSS in general is, see here. This should give you a good idea. With this newfound knowledge in mind my initial post here should make more sense to you. ;)

Hey gossip, the links here are done in the {url=(insert address)} TEXT{/url}, see the sidebar for more make ups. This is the link you intended to give. :)

Of course... my bad, sorry. Was in a hurry, didn't preview before posting. Thanks for pointing it out! :)
