A New Way of Subscribing to RSS Web Content
on Nov 02 in Internet Marketing by Andy ChimiclesA new site called Tabbloid emails you a PDF “magazine” version of your favorite blogs. Just enter the rss feed or feeds and how often you’d like to be updated. You can have it send you a new edition every week.
I can see a few good uses for this
- Use it to view blogs offline. Upload it to your iPhone, or read in the subway or on a flight.
- Bloggers can offer weekly PDF’d versions of their blogs to readers. This would be beneficial to non-technical readers who are not yet familiar with RSS and newsreaders. It allows readers to easily email and pass around your content. You can use it for a weekly email newsletter that is well formatted and ready to send.
- Busy executives can have their assistants create them a weekly newsletter of only the most relevant blog posts. It is a good alternative to sending someone a long list of links and is good for those who are technically challenged.
Check out an example Tabbloid that I generated here. It was made from my Google Reader Shared Items feed.
