Rssfeeds

BlogRoll

Bloglines

I used Bloglines to create my blogroll, which is just a list of all of the RSS Feeds that I am using for the project. However, Google Reader has been much more useful for updating me on current events, as described under current events. I would suggest using Google Reader instead of Bloglines because it has a better blog search tool and has a more readable format.

RSSFEED Reviews

I did not use many RSS feeds because there were not enough websites devoted specifically enough to the Movie Distribution Industry. Homemediamagazine.com, VideoBusiness, and Twice were really enough to give me all of the current events and news that I could imagine. The other RSS feeds that I used really did not give me much relevant information. If you want news about the movie distribution industry, I would try to focus directly on the three best websites I mentioned above so that you do not waste time. Below is an overview of each that I used.

1. homemediamagazine.com - News: Home Media's RSS Feed is really useful because it gives almost all relevant and up to date information about the movie distribution industry.

2. Tech Shout!: This is just a technological RSS Feed that gives news on the newest technological advances. I sometimes find a gem of an article, however it is not specific enough to always give me information on movie technology.

3. TechBlips - All Technology News, Videos, and Blogs: TechBlips serves the same purpose as Tech Shout!, however it seems to have a couple more relevant articles on movie technology, but that might just be a coincidence on a week to week basis.

4. TWICE - Video News (10) - Twice's RSS feed is really cool because it is a feed of just a specific portion of the Twice website. I only get information on video news, and almost all of it is relevant towards the movie distribution industry.

5. Video Business Online - Technology News: This RSS Feed only gives me video technology news. It is very specific and great if you just want information on the newest movie distribution technology.

6. Video Business Online - VOD/Downloads News: A great feature of Video Business Online is that it gives you the option of having multiple RSS feeds focused on specific types of Video News. This RSS Feed only gives me news on online downloading and streaming movie technology. It is really useful and completely pertains to the movie distribution industry

7. Movie Distribution Industry - Yahoo Pipes: I created a movie distribution industry rss feed that combined TechBlips, Tech Shout!, and Twice together. This allowed me to filter all of this information by keywords and to omit certain information, giving me a much more focused RSS feed. Even though I did receive some relevant articles from this RSS feed, they still were focused too much on other technologies.
