Introducing BlogWave !

Introducing BlogWave !

"This is an alpha (read: mostly functional and sort of stable) version of a tool which enables scheduled generation and publishing of RSS feeds. This allows, for example, publishing Sharepoint lists and libraries as RSS feeds with no modifications needed to the Sharepoint server.

BlogWave Feature List:
Generate RSS feeds based on a variety of inputs:
WSS lists/libraries
Existing RSS files or feeds
Additional input sources are planned, such as Sharepoint searches and aggregated feeds.

Publish the generated feeds to different destinations:
Local/network locations
.Text based blogs
WSS libraries
FTP sites.

Schedule the generation and publication with a flexible scheduling system
Set which days of the week, what hours, and how often should the generation take place
Set user credentials and advanced options such as running even with no logged-in user or running only when idle."

Very cool... Going to have to give this a try.

Still have to get my users into the RSS mode. But I guess content first to drive the RSS wants?
