If you follow these instructions exactly, it 'should' work for you.ġ) Create very specific job queries using Boolean connectors: The following demonstration is not meant to answer all your questions, and I do not have the time to respond to any technical problems you might encounter. I take no responsibility for any of the results you may encounter, so use this method at your own risk.ġ) Create very specific job queries using Boolean connectorsĢ) Test these out and then copy the RSS feedģ) Paste the RSS feed you just created into a Newsfeed applicationĤ) Test out the news feed on your iPhone or Android and set up synch and notifications This is a courtesy to fellow freelancers, and I may not be able to respond to your questions. I use a combination of the following, which I'll show you how to do in this article. The below method describes in detail how to automate job notifications for very specific categories of job search queries. At that point I find it's better to just have everything embedded in the browser, which is why I switched to Vivaldi from Firefox (which used to have Live Bookmarks and other RSS features that got stripped away, unfortunately).I like to respond to new and highly interesting job postings as soon as possible. On a side note, I'm not sure I could go back to a standalone RSS reader, mainly because it would need to support some form of content blocking with cosmetic filters enabled. I don't know where it pulls data from, but it's helped me find feeds for a couple websites that didn't link to or even expose their RSS feed to the browser. What I did find useful about it was its feed search function. It has options for creating rulesets and tagging posts, but I haven't really dug into those. My RSS needs are pretty basic, so this does everything I need it to. In the meantime, I've been using the Feedbro extension. I could see myself switching to it and the built-in email client full time once both of them are feature-complete and a little more polished. I've tried Vivaldi's built-in RSS reader and found it a little rough around the edges. I can blast through it with keyboard shortcuts. I like this view with just one condensed list of everything from all feeds sorted chronigically. I don't use the "Leo" AI assistant thing I'm pretty manual with how I have the feeds discovered and organized but their front page promo-material is really focused on that feature. (I used that to be in the loop on breaking information on specific upcoming products.) You can also set up feeds based on Google News searches, or just keyword searches that will search all feeds that Feedly knows about and put articles that hit the search criteria into your feed. You can also subscribe to public Twitter accounts or YouTube channels and they will show up in the feed as well. It will then generate a feed based on that so new articles or whatever will be caught and injected into the feed. You click a link on that page and it generates a CSS selector to find similar links on the page. You give it a URL and it gives you a page preview. "Read later" bookmarks or article categorization gets synced between the two, of course.įeedly also recently introduced an "RSS feed generator" function which is great for sites that do not offer RSS feeds. I'm very invested in RSS to keep up on various things and being able to get to the same feed from my desktop or from my phone is very handy. I generally prefer desktop apps over cloud services, but in this case I rather like having a cloud service. It is a paid product, but I just paid for a lifetime license so I'm not doing a monthly fee or anything. They presented a similar interface with the same keyboard shortcuts, so it was an easy transition. I switched over to Feedly after Google Reader died. So I just used what was built into my browser that seemed good enough. I joined the RSS bandwagon late, and the general impression I got was that Google Reader was the best and everyone sort of stopped talking about RSS after it disappeared. Opera does a better job of letting me know that there are updates via toast notifications I sometimes forget about my feeds if I don't use Opera for a while.īut I haven't really explored the market much, especially the standalone market. In both cases, I like that they're integrated with the browser. They both allow various labeling options Vivaldi has nice e-mail forwarding of RSS info that I haven't really used yet. Vivaldi's probably the better one at this point due to more HTML/CSS capabilities when rendering, but I haven't fully migrated. They have similar three-column interfaces and features. I'm half-migrated between Opera Presto's integrated reader, and Vivaldi's new integrated reader. One of the essential pieces of a modern Internet suite, what's your favorite RSS/Atom feed reader?
