Best 6 Way to filter your feeds

There are many ways to filter news feeds from your favorite sources, including passively by relying on meme trackers like Techmeme or social news services such as Google Reader's shared items. We've also taken a look in the past at automatic filters such as Feedhub ( our coverage ) which learns from your behavior to suggest posts, or AideRSS ( our coverage and here ), which uses outside metrics to determine which items in an RSS feed are the "best." For the purpose of this post, however, we'll focus on services that let you filter by keyword. Feed Rinse is a best of class RSS filtering application. It offers filtering by keyword, tag, author, title, etc. It supports regular expressions, has a built in profanity filter, and lets you upload your OPML file for easy importing of your RSS feeds (it can also export to OPML). And since we first covered it in April of 2006 it has gone completely free. FilterMyRSS is a no-nonsense keyword fil

Step by Step: How To Enable Facebook New Timeline Right This Second

This morning Facebook announced Timeline , a crazy (and kind of creepy) omnibus look at everything that has ever happened in your Facebook lifespan. It’s like a story book of your life — or at least the online, documented parts. Facebook said that Timeline would be on the way for everyone sometime in the coming weeks… which is great and all, for everyone else. You’re the type of person who reads , and are thus likely the type of person who likes their new and shiny things right now . That’s okay. We can make it happen. Fortunately, enabling Timeline a bit early isn’t too difficult — but it’s not at all straight forward, either. You see, Facebook is enabling Timeline early for open graph developers. You, too, can be an open graph developer — even if you’re just looking to dabble. A few things to note: - You probably don’t want to do this unless you’re actually a developer. Expect bugs. - Only you will see your timeline at first (unless you decide

POLICE WARNING - New Method of Car Hijacking Captured in SL

IMPORTANT - Warning..!!!! WARNING FROM POLICE THIS APPLIES TO BOTH WOMEN AND MEN BEWARE OF PAPER ON THE BACK WINDOW OF YOUR VEHICLE-- NEW WAY TO DO CARJACKINGS (NOT A JOKE)' Heads up everyone! Please, keep this circulating.. You walk across the car park, unlock your car and get inside. You start the engine put it into reverse. When you look into the rearview mirror to back out of your space, you notice a piece of paper stuck to the middle of the rear window. So, you stop and jump out of your car to remove that paper (or whatever it is) that is obstructing your view. When you reach the back of your car, that is when the carjackers appear out of nowhere, jump into your car and take off. They practically run you over as they speed off in your car.

Radika took game away from CR&FC

Experienced a great game of rugby last evening at Royal sports complex between CR & FC vs Air Force. CR played with a young team with few of their role models, they played absolutely well to produce a great game of rugby for spectators. Air force lead the 1st half, but CR came back strong to keep the score board ticking. The marginal score was CR 25 - Air force 20 until last minute of the game. Former Kandy player Radika Hettiarachchi Change the whole result in a while, with a impressive under post try. The conversion of the try succeeded by himself to take the 02 point lead. CR spectators not impressed with Referee Jamaldeen and complained the game played over time. Air force will meet Kandy SC at bogambara on ther Semi finals. Image Gallery of the Game by me. >>

Tweeps, Twits & Twitter

Twitter network in SL becoming efficient after the gathering on last 27th, the meet up of bunch of strangers was a great atmosphere for all participant and i was dormant for a while. The community gathered to get to know each other which we used to communicate whole day via twitter. It wasn't a bad experience for me since most of them came from nowhere lands. Majority of them not known each other in physical world and started a new friendships. The first meet up took one step ahead. Bunch of twitting friends spared a space from the busy life schedule for sudden meetups. This environment can be used for betterment of regular life for each and every one. Majority of the tweeps sincere to help each others with their knowledge without any jealousy. This is the composure which we really expects from a social friends networks. I'm having great time with teasing, hinting and helping others via twits and it refreshes the depressed cycle. The world running towards noman
