CleverClogs announces OnePipe

Marjolein over on CleverClogs has announced 'OnePipe'.

Here's how she describes it:

"As far as I know OnePipe is the first solution to offer generic, on-the-fly feed filtering based on URL parameterization."

And that's exactly what it is. She has used Yahoo! Pipes to create a generic feed filtering service in the form of a bookmarklet.

Simply Highlight some text on the page, click the OnePipe bookmark and you are presented with links to the feeds on that page filtered by the words you highlighted.

It is like a bookmark driven FeedRinse or a very rudimentary Touchstone.

Well done Marjolein.

Your Attention Profile - The Non-Evil Way

Aaron Mentele from FeedRinse has posted about APML.

He says:

"Chris Saad and Ashley Angell of Faraday Media / Touchstone have introduced a standard format for attention data. I’ve had a chance to look through the APML (Attention Profiling Mark-up Language) proposal, and short of seeing the word Profiling and noticing email address as an attribute in the profile, it looks promising. I can see a benefit to having an agreed-upon format for attention profiles, similar to the HL7 spec for personal health information."

It's a great read about Attention Profiling in general - check it out.
