Space Feeds

Space Feeds

On November 2nd of last year, I started putting together the Space Blogroll (currently numbering 143 blogs, and growing). Ever since that time, I have wanted to have one central location that would display the syndicated feeds of the most prolific of those blogs, along with the feeds of some of the top space news sites. Of course, I have been using Bloglines to monitor quite a few of those blogs and news sites, but I wanted a place to share all of those feeds with everyone.

And now, I have finally done it. I created a new blog called Space Feeds, which aggregates the most recent blog posts from approximately three dozen of the most prolific space bloggers, along with top stories from about two dozen space news sites. Also included on that page are a whole bunch of links to space businesses, reference sites, government space agencies, and so forth. I think this new site will be a really useful tool for anyone interested in space - in fact, I expect that a few space bloggers will want to have a direct link to Space Feeds on their blog sidebar. Therefore, I made up a nifty button that links to Space Feeds, which anyone can place on their blog sidebar. The necessary code to do so is available here:


Update: I have since revamped the Space Feeds blog. It now displays the 50 most recent blog posts from over 100 space blogs, as well as the 50 most recent news items from more than 30 space news sites, as well as NASA TV, the Astronomy Picture of the Day, and a huge list of space-related links.
