Feedity has been updated to version 1.5.4. This version only includes some bug fixes. Most importantly Feedity now offers 3 service plans (Free, Premium, Pro) depending upon the target usage. The service plans have been mainly introduced for commercial use and other types of data integration.

Here’s what’s new on the blogosphere about Feedity (also see past testimonials):

A very interesting new service.

After The Dot Net

About six weeks back I came across Feedity which is a web feed generator for sites that don’t have syndication available. It’s very simple, yet powerful and useful. And to boot, no registration is required which means this is definitely a no hassle solution. I’m sure there are a lot of other applications who do the same but I like Feedity because of its simple design and ease of use.

I was reading read/writeweb’s list of Top 60 Australian web 2.0 apps … But in amongst all the likely contenders that I’m already familiar with was this one gem that I’d somehow never come across before – Feedity. Simplest way to describe it is “Yahoo! Pipes for dummies” – a clever way of scraping data off a web page and presenting it in RSS format.

I used feedity for my shopping site to convert html to xml/rss. Its an excellent tool.

Thanks to all the Feedity users and supporters! If you find Feedity useful then please consider donating an amount of your choice towards the maintenance and improvement of this free-for-life service.

The month of March was exceptionally busy with work, and the past 2 weeks have been exhaustive with other personal priorities. The trend is a bit relaxing for now, so I thought of updating Feedity with a feature I had in mind for a while.

There was a minor update (v1.4.1) a couple of weeks back, but the current update (v1.5) includes a brand new feature called Advanced Refinement. Feedity already had a refinement feature which was useful for tweaking the feed output. The new feature extends on the refinement concept and provides the user a code-level scraping option. This was the most requested feature by Feedity users and it made sense to have it running. You can find a Advanced Refinement Help slideshow in the refinement options page on Feedity.

I’ve also updated the Feedity layout and interface in this release, and I hope it looks more streamlined and composed. As before, thanks to the wonderful users of Feedity who share their feedback and keep this service going. Here’s what’s new on the blogosphere about Feedity (also see past testimonials):

CyberNotes

It turned out to be exactly what I was looking for. … It’s very simple, yet powerful and useful. … Feedity is one of those things that you’ll want to stash away in your bookmarks, because eventually you’ll probably come across a site that doesn’t offer syndication.

Christopher Craft

This is a cool tool if I’ve ever seen one…

Binary Law UK

… a terrific widget …

Ashish Sinha @ pluGGd.in

The best part about this tool is it’s simple to use and if marketed well, can be used extensively by non-techie-small businesses around the globe.

One Tip A Day

Sounds like just what I need.

Nearly Legal UK

I can see all kinds of possibilities.

Feedity has been gaining stability over the past few months now (thanks to the RSS community for all the support), and while a much powerful version 2 is in works, the blogosphere is buzzing with some nice reviews and comments about Feedity. So here’s a few selected one’s …

Robin Good @ MasterNewMedia:

Simple, non-geek RSS generator to scrape static web pages with no feeds

Kyle Pott @ lifehack.org:

Most Web sites use RSS, but occasionally I find Web sites that don’t (for example: College Journal, IMDB). Feedity does all the work for you, all you need to do is enter the URL of your favorite RSS-less Web site and it will dynamically create an RSS feed for you.

On Wikipedia:

The usual way is that a RSS feed is made available by the same entity that created the content. Typically the feed comes from the same place as the website. However not all websites provide a feed. Sometimes third parties will read the website and create a feed for it. … Sometimes this is done by tools that are hand crafted for each particular website. There are also automatic tools such as Feedity

Pete Cashmore @ Mashable:

… some of the web-based apps may still be preferable if you only need this feature (viz RSS Feed from any Website) occasionally: Feedtier is now called Feedity, and it seemed to work great when I tested it today.

Emily Chang @ eHub

A simple yet powerful web feed generator for web pages without an existing syndication format like RSS or Atom.

Netzwelt News Germany

Unfortunately yet each web page does not offer RSS feeds. Feedity.com comes to remedy.

Eduardo Peirano

Very simple to use.

NEO Binaries

The subscriber does not need to have knowledge of regular expressions and also need not register to get his web feed.

Grumpator

I even got a few “oohs” as I showed how Feedity could scrape a page to generate a feed … I only learned about Feedity that morning, thanks to Roseline, who was collaborating with me on gathering information for the presentation, so I was as thrilled as everyone else.

Dave Riley @ Ratbag Radio Network

I have found a better and hopefully more stable; feed maker — Feedity – and will proceed to (re)create some useful feeds with that.

And also featured at: 42 cool Australian internet startups, Sito Service Italy, The Museum of Modern Betas, Genbeta and many more.

Thanks to all the bloggers for writing about Feedity! And a quick cheer for Miles Kehoe (New Idea Engineering) for his contribution. Thank you all!
