I’ve been playing a bit with Elgg, an open source social networking platform and one of it’s cool features is the ability to automatically syndicate content from a different blog. Here’s how to do it:
- go to your profile
- click on Your Resources in the menu bar
- click on Feeds (right under the page title)
- add the address of the RSS feed for your blog
- click on Publish to Blog (right under the page title)
- tick the checkbox next to your newly added feed, and add a tag for Elgg to tag your incoming posts with
- Click the update button.
Quite a neat feature (yes I’m testing it with this post)
Update: *scratches head* - doesn’t seem to work …
