MyJugaad.in – Create an Online Slideshow from RSS

 
Share

Lo-fi librarian mentioned MyJugaad.in, which is a tool to create an online slideshow of webpages. You can use any RSS feed, popular sources such as google news, a tag on del.icio.us, or a list of sites.

It seems as if all my projects recently involve using the Green Tweeter data but since the data is already compiled and the pipes have already been created it is an easy resource to use and the data is interesting and informative. So, I created two slideshows; one for the twitter feeds of the green users and the second is from the rss feeds of the blogs of the green twitter users.

The slide is changed every 60 seconds but that settings can be adjusted. There are also controls for Previous, Next and Pause and the shortcut keys for the settings are shown when you hover over the link.

In addition, the control panel of the slideshow includes the title of the post or tweet and if you hover over the title link, you will get more information about the post. Here is an example:

I can think of many practical uses for this tool; researching a topic using del.icio.us tags, creating an online portfolio, creating a slideshow for educational purposes, and many more. Is anyone else using this tool? Or does anyone know of another free online resource that provides the same service?
