Note: If "RSS" doesn't mean anything to you, you may not get much out of this post! ![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Hi, I'm an RSS junkie. I don't like refreshing websites to check for updates, which is why I love Google Reader.
There are certain airplane-building projects on Kitlog - RV and otherwise - that I'm interested in following, but since Kitlog doesn't support RSS, I never remember to keep up. I finally got fed up with this state of affairs, and taught myself how to use Yahoo's free Pipes service so I could massage Kitlog's builder pages into RSS format. My solution is general enough for anyone else to use, so here's how to set it up:
1. First, go here: http://pipes.yahoo.com/mburch/kitlogrss
2. Enter the builder's Kitlog username in the box.
3. Click the "Run Pipe" button.
4. Click the "Get as RSS" link.
5. Copy and paste the resulting URL into your RSS reader of choice.
Voila, you are now following that user's Kitlog site as an RSS feed. Enjoy.
