Lockworld Herald News is back!

When FeedCraft shut down their service several months ago, it meant the end of my RSS feed titled "Lockworld Herald News," which was hosted by FeedCraft.

I'm pleased to announce that Lockworld Herald News is now back online, hosted on my very own Web site! Thanks to my favorite RSS creation software, Listgarden, I can now publish my own RSS feed, hosted directly on my site. One of the best features of Listgarden is the ability to export an HTML version of the feed contents, so that I can create my very own landing page for every RSS feed I offer.

Although I have no subscribers to this feed (Not surprisingly, since the entire purpose of this feed is to toot my own horn and let people know what I'm doing with this site), I'm happy to have this feed back up and running. Even better, now that it's hosted on my own Web site, it can be indexed and searched as a part of my own Web site, rather than an external site.

Listgarden is a free application for Windows, Mac, or Linux. The program can help you manage all of your RSS feeds and export either local files (to later upload to your site), or directly upload your published feed to your FTP folder, or both. The program is easy to use, works nicely as a portable application (run from a USB drive), and offers you all the tools you need to create an unlimited number of RSS feeds.
