What is this? Another aggregator?
Yes, this is another aggregator. But I'm not trying to compete with the very well done MXNA,
Full As a Goog, or Feed Squirrel (all of which are programming aggregators). I was trying to get traffic to my own blog and was not finding a good resource to add my URL to. So it dawned on me that the blackberry community needs a blogging aggregator! How many of us would like more traffic to our blackberry blogs? (yeah I knew you would!)
So, me being a Coldfusion programmer, I found a Coldfusion Blogging Feed Aggregator at www.coldfusionbloggers.org. I loved this site and had the admin add me to his aggregator.
Bingo! Instant traffic with each posting I made. DING!!! light goes on :) Let me do this for my favorite communications tool!
So I took his code (yes it's given away freely) and made some modifications and well, here you are :)
What blogs do you aggregate?
You can see a list on the Feeds page. There is
also an OPML feed.
I'm aggregated and proud - can I show off with some fancy button?
Yes! I have created two buttons. Please link back to http://www.BlackberryBloggers.org.
If you'd like to add an RSS feed widget like the one below to your site click "grab this" at the bottom of the widget and you'll have the latest feeds from this site added to your blog.
Can you add my blog?
I wrote this application very quickly. Right now it doesn't even have an admin. I can add your blog if you send me an email. Use
the contact page from the tab up top. I will add your blog as soon as I can. :-)
Is there a ping service?
Yes. To ping this site, first figure out the exact URL we have on record for your blog. You
can find this on the Feeds page. Then simply set your blog software to ping:
http://www.blackberrybloggers.org/ping.cfm?burl=YOURURL
If it worked correctly, you will get an "Ok" response.
