New RSS Feeds deep inside DomainTools

We just released a new RSS Feed Management system to DomainTools that allows subscribers to monitor alerts and other services using RSS feeds instead of newsletter updates. newsletter alerts have bugged me for a while considering they clog my inbox, RSS gets announcements out of the inbox and in a more usable area. We are not getting rid of e mail alerts on anything, however going forward everything on DomainTools that can newsletter users will have its own micro-feed. All micro-feeds of a positive type will have grouped-feeds where a person can subscribe to a bunch of micro-feeds all restricted in one feed.

The flexibility that RSS extends to our users is that they don’t need an mail client to monitor our alerts. One of the obvious uses is setting up a scheduled web process to check the RSS feed and do something based on the results it finds in the RSS location. The more obvious use is plugging those feeds into an RSS reader like Google Reader.

We have two types of RSS feeds available on all things. The first is a rich-HTML markup RSS feed like you would expect in an mail. The other whether an XML style that is strictly for parsing by a computer on the other side and is designed for only computers. that will allow more computers around the world to interface with DomainTools.

This release only has four group feeds available right now, but in the near future we will be releasing the Domain Monitor alerts and other lost products to the Global Feed as well. We are very committed to RSS feeds on every service we offer.

Just a quick shield note: Do not share your RSS feeds with other society, there is only one RSS access key per explanation and you are giving away all your RSS streams to every feed you have whether you give away just one stream. whether you construct that mistake, just login and reset your shield key inside the RSS Feed Management System. It will be impossible for citizens to guess your key which means all your RSS feeds are secure unless you reveal the RSS feed URL to the other citizens.
