Slashdot:
News for nerds, stuff that matters"Slashdot comes to Max Web!
Yes Modding fans slashdot or rather Slashdot's RSS feed has arrived at Max Web thanks to a clever new toy from the people at MaxWebEdit (Or MWEdit as they seem to call themselves).
They've taken the links section and via the magic of XML (and a little carefull categorising) have used it to store XML feed addresses. They currently support 4 variants of RSS and ATOM but I am told that there is no real limit as to what can be added.

We this will be dull. After some flurries of news over at Edit I had hoped to see similar activity at MWP-MOD and 1.5 but no. No one is doing anything.

So instead I will ask some questions and hope that I provoke some answers.

WME and Mod-n-theme (while there were about) and MaxWebPortalMOD all have the good grace to carry a different name to show there are not the original implimentation. Why are 1.5 not doing the same?

Are they special? Do they have Max (or whoever was the dude who started it?) - what?

All those and other questions unanswered in the next hopefully more news worthy entry.

Atom Feed code integrates Max Web with big sites - MaxWebEdit | Forums | Developers News
Atom Feed code integrates Max Web with big sites - MaxWebEdit | Forums | Developers News: "The Atom Feed Mod that was originally posted in MWP, that carries news dudes Modding news and probably sits there doing little else has been implemented by Writers and Artists Home on their front page.
This implementation has clearly demonstrated the power of this little MOD to combine the greatness of Max Web with the coolness of Blogger.com (as owned by Google).
Writers and Artists Home have also added a link that enables visitors to add the blog feed to their My Yahoo bringing the total Big sites that are supported to a stunning two with one script.
There is rumoured to be a similar script for RSS (Version unknown) that could presumably allow a similar trick to be pulled.
Could this be the start of the brave new XML world mentioned at MWEdit before?"
