Mobilisoft rss/rdf reader converts rss and rdf feeds to html format.

Also http://mobilerss.net/ works nicely.

The output of these two pales in comparison to the one I've written. Frankly its downright ugly. Usability and good-looking output are important to the user-experience.

You can see some screenshots below of what it looks like when this same content is rendered and converted to Plucker format (as well as a screenshot of the original upstream HTML rendition) using the 12pt and 10pt anti-aliased fonts I created for Plucker users.

Any idea when the Plucker Syndication Server will be released? It looks very tasty indeed.

Hey Guys !

Doctorow, thanks for the link !

I have one question : for reasons I won't explain today (hotsync problems on my Clié TH55) I havent been using iSilo lately, but I read through AvantGo (via Wifi sync).

It works fine (even better than iSilo+hotsync) and I've added "personnal channels" such as Slate or french daily Libération.

Lately I'm sure you've heard of the Huffington Post, which offers a full articles RSS feed.
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/raw_feed_index.rdf

Surely enough iSilo would have taken care of it, but AvantGo doesn't.

Thanks to http://rssreader.mobilisoft.com/ it translates to AvantGo compatiliy.

But unfortunately it works only once "per session" : is there a way to make it permanent ?

Or to put it in other words, do you have a html link to full articles of the Huffington Post ?

Thanks !!

Arnaud,

I am not sure what you mean by "per session"; but perhaps this link works better for you:

well.. what I meant was it only worked for me once, and I thought I had to create the link everytime I was interested...
