Hi guys and gals, I'm kind of new to XMPP techniques and I'm a person who only learns by "doing it my self" so:
I did a example PubSub service that publishes all the BBC World News as they are published by BBC. There are 2 ways to subscribe to the service: 1) add bbc-n...@xmpp.lobstermonster.org to your XMPP roster OR 2) find "bbc_news" -node at pubsub.xmpp.lobstermonster.org and do the needed PubSub subscriptions The first option is more user friendly since you just need to add the contact to you roster, and when you want to unsubscribe, you just remove the bbc-news -users from your contacts. And this feature should be provided by almost all the XMPP clients rather than easy to use PubSub -functionalism. The other difference in this service is that when a new item is published to the node, user bbc-news at xmpp.lobstermonster.org will send you the item also as "clear message". This is done so that the service is usable even with gMail's client. I also wrote a small story about it on my web site: http://www.lobstermonster.org/post/xmpp-pubsub-service-to-publish-bbc-world-news If you have any ideas how the service could work better, don't hesitate to yell out loud! And if you want me to add your favorite RSS feed to be able to be subscribed like this, I can do that too. Cheers, -- tuomas ps. sorry if someone get's this mail twice, I send it also to the pubsub -mailing list. _______________________________________________ JDev mailing list Forum: http://www.jabberforum.org/forumdisplay.php?f=20 Info: http://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/jdev Unsubscribe: jdev-unsubscr...@jabber.org _______________________________________________
