[UPDATED] MSN Messenger news service+alerts! by Yousef on 10-03-2005 at 04:28 PM

I created a news service for MSN Messenger, which gathers all MSN Messenger news from all major MSN websites, and shows the most recent items. It also exports a RSS feed :)

To see it working, go to my MSN Messenger news page.

Alerts via MSN Messenger are available now as well: [Image: alert_signup_eng.gif]

Stigmata, check out the Msgweb RSS page

Absorbation, your rss seems to be corrupt (contact me on MSN).

Nice to hear :).
If anyone knows another MSN site with quite some news, I'd be glad to hear. Other suggestions are welcome as well :)

(An MSN Alert service is coming as well)

Alright, I added the 'I'm just the messenger' space (thanks dempsey), and Google MSN News (A). Check it out here: http://www.msgweb.nl/en/MSN_Messenger_news/

Alerts via MSN are available now as well: [Image: alert_signup_eng.gif]

I hope everything works, please tell me, then I'll put the alerts button on my website :)

hey I think your RSS is messed, when do you expect it to be fixed? I want to stick it on my google home ;)

BTW, your site looks like one of those lame ones that tries to accomplish something but they really, in the end, suck.  But, YOURS IS AWESOME! good job man!

It's fixed now, though I had to fix it manually. It won't validate 'ö' somehow, even though it's utf-8. Going to check this out later.

Just spent the last day fixing my RSS feed for Messengermad.com. I'd be honored to be added to the RSS bank for this project.

RE: [UPDATED] MSN Messenger news service+alerts! by Yousef on 12-15-2005 at 06:29 AM

Rebelsean, there still seems to be an error..

Anyway, I created a website for this project: http://www.messenger-news.com. I tried to keep the site as simple as possible. Please tell me what you think, suggestions are welcome.

Thanks to absorbation for the domain :)

hrm, good idea, and site design is basic, I like it.

RE: [UPDATED] MSN Messenger news service+alerts! by Yousef on 12-15-2005 at 04:23 PM

Thanks Dane. Anyone else with comments/suggestions?
