FFFFound.com Digest RSS Feed

So I recently started browsing FFFFound.com for cool images, and I love it. When I started finding really cool stuff in there, I figured, hey, I’ll add this site to my RSS reader (as I normally do with sites and blogs that I enjoy). Well, the joke was on me, because ffffound updates every few seconds, which means that it completely takes over my RSS reader with posts. This was very annoying.

That’s when it occurred to me that what I wanted was a digest feed; a feed that combined a few hours worth of ffffound posts into one. And then I realized that this was not particularly hard to do. So I did it.

Here it is.

This feed updates every six hours, with a post that contains a table of thumbnails of all the ffffound posts within that six hour block. It’s perfect for any RSS readers that support basic HTML. Now I get one update every six hours with a bunch of cool images to browse. Perfect.

Enjoy!

The Pitchfork 500 Analysis: Chapter I

As many of you know, I received the Pitchfork 500 from my parents as a Hanukkah gift, and it has since sparked a number of reactions from my various friends, ranging from grudging respect (John Collins) to genuine irritation (Stromberg). Soon after I started perusing the book, I had the idea of listening to every song while reading the associated blurb, so I decided to do just that. When I told my friends about my plan, Jesse, in particular, was intrigued, and last week he purchased the book himself and decided to do the same thing. Which brings us to yesterday, when I received the following email:

Tumblr Integration

Hey all.

So I’ve added Tumblr integration to the site using the FeedWordPress plugin. The plugin is scanning my Tumblog for posts and updating this blog accordingly. So if you’re wondering why there are suddenly 30 new posts, that’s why (I imported a bunch of old tumbles).

And you can always just follow my Tumblr blog directly, since I’ve been Tumblr blogging much more than regular blogging.

I have not been blogging…

But I have been tumbling. Check out my tumblog for updates, and meanwhile I’ll figure out how to integrate the tumblog into the site.
