FeedJournal ovvero come realizzare un tabloid con i vostri articoli
Mi è capitato di imbattermi nel sito feedjournal.com che, sostanzialmente, è un servizio di pubblicazione dei contenuti di un feed RSS in formato pdf e con look da quotidiano stampato!
Ho così sperimentato la cosa inserendo il feed di questo blog e il risultato lo potete constatare anche voi nel widget, nella barra laterale, che viene rilasciato al termine della procedura di iscrizione al loro servizio.
Per adesso è gratuito, con delle limitazioni funzionali, mentre ci sono due piani a pagamento che consentono un editing del giornale prima della pubblicazione.
Certo, con il mio scarso contenuto "giornalistico" non è un bel quotidiano quello prodotto, ma penso che con altri blog e migliori feed si possa fare un bel giornale!
