Get the RSS Feed for Any Twitter Account with Twitter RSS

Get the RSS Feed for Any Twitter Account with Twitter RSS | Content Curation World | Scoop.it
Twitter-RSS allows you to get in RSS format the latest news of the twitter users choosen by you.
Robin Good's insight:


Twitter is a new free web service which allows you to get the RSS feed for any active Twitter account.


Highly useful for news and content curators wanting to subscribe with their RSS reader or content curation tool to specific Twitter accounts.


From March 2013 Twitter has in fact disabled its own RSS feed service.

Glad to see that RSS is not dead, despite waht Google think!

anyone remember when it was easy to discover an RSS feed right from any twitter page? the source would just be based on some unique id...a string of like eight or nine numbers. that ability went away last october. this looks a lot cleaner, and it's a great find...still i wonder why simpler feed discovery isn't possible anymore.

I'll admit I'm not really skillful with twitter and I know almost nothing about RSS but it does instantly seem apparent to me that most Twitter feeds just have so much total crap on them that saving/collecting is totally a waste of time.

Curator Tools: How To Create Persistent Searches and RSS Feeds on Bing Easily

Curator Tools: How To Create Persistent Searches and RSS Feeds on Bing Easily | Content Curation World | Scoop.it
Robin Good's insight:



If you want to create a "persistent search", that is, a recurring search on a specific set of keywords, and obtain a RSS feed that you can subscribe to, here is how to do it:


Just append &format=rss to the end of the url to turn any search results page into an RSS feed automatically.





Even better, you can combine the RSS feed parameter with the search by time parameter that Bing makes available so that you will receive new sites entering the search results more frequently in your RSS reader.


Creating RSS feeds out of persisten searches can be particularly useful for news curators who want to monitor search engines on specific topics without having to manually go and perform those searches.
