Just found a way cool tool! The author, Chris Nandor, calls it "my_portal."
It's a meta-portal that manipulates RDF Site Summary (RSS) files. You can
collect summaries of Perl News, www.perl.com, Slashdot, and many more. Chris
describes RSS and my_portal in "RSS and You."

Visiting my_portal (http://www.news.perl.org/my_portal/) was my first
exposure to Slash (http://slashcode.com/), the open-sourced package that
runs Slashdot. Anyone volunteering to set up Slash for the PPPM? I'd like to
get to it, but at the rate I'm working on all my projects, it could be a
year...

Hope to see you tomorrow.
