Rss feed for Google web search results

Thursday, October 16th, 2008

I’ve recently read a few blog posts talking about how Google will soon be offering RSS feeds for basic search results.  I thought this was very cool. As I began thinking of the various uses for this I decided I couldn’t wait for Google to bring it out so I created a basic facility using PHP to provide Google search results in RSS form.

Try it out:

Google.ie search results in RSS form

Check it out, see what you think. At the moment I’ve limited it to 50 results. In the coming days I’ll add to it, get the feeds to automatically update every 24 hours or so. I’d like to add some sort of indicators to show if a website URL has moved up or down and to keep track of some of my own URLs. If anyone wants the PHP code for this, let me know.

Digg this

Monday, May 5th, 2008

Just added a ‘Digg this’ option to the blog side panel, hopefully it will get the word out about this blog. Please digg this if you can.

Later this week I’ll have a couple of good blog posts about business card drafts, paying for proprietary software and eWrite Demo revisited.

Thanks to all those who have signed up to the RSS feed so far.
