Zimbabwe News Feeds

A great site for RSS lovers is RSS MIX, which is where I found a helpful tool to combine more than one RSS news feed into a single feed. So I am attempting to build one feed for news about Zimbabwe. There are not that many that I can find, so send me any feeds you can find, please!

The combined RSS feed for Zimbabwe News is:
http://www.rssmix.com/u/2969/rss.xml
and the HTML version (one you can see on an regular web page!) is
here: http://www.rssmix.com/u/2969/.

Of course, you can also scoot over to my buddy Rob Ellis' blog THE BEARDED MAN where he does a good job of keeping Zimbabwe news links in the sidebar. Keep them going, Mandebvhu!

RSS MIX also has great tools for RSS Parsing, and a Wizard to help create news feeds for web sites. Thanks to Todd Cochrane and the Geek News Central podcast for this connection. You may also want to check out Robin Good's blog and see his hard work in this area.

If you are a bona fide geek and really understand all the tech stuff behind RSS and OPML and podcasting, I tip my hat to you because I am just a good geek impersonator, I suppose, and know just enough to make me dangerous. It is podcasts like Todd's and pages and blogs from guys like Robin that make the Internet so enormously helpful to wannabes like me! So, thanks, fellas.
